OPENTICK FEED

Postby Thomas Mann » 16 Nov 2008

Hi,
I wanted to see if anyone else here is using Opentick as a feed. I would like to compare some issues I have seen to try and help MC and opentick fix them. Please PM me if you have time. Listed below are some issues I have seem.
Thanks

1 When Markets get busy I have seen a lag in the feed for up to 6 seconds

2 When I leave charts open Friday nite after the close I still see a OHLC spike bar that messes up the charts

3 If I get a bad tick in the data and I edit it out thru QM when I open that chart back up it adds it back in.

4 Opentick needs to add a continous symbol for the main futs symbols

I have contacted Opentick and they are working on some of the issues, but it is taking a long time. I am not sure what is going on with the company. They have frozen all accounts and no new accounts are being added. I also can not add any other exchanges to my subscription.

OT does have continuous contracts...for example ES is #ES.

Hi,
I meant to say I was looking for #ES
EM is the exchange I currently use which gives me /ESZ8
On the EC exchange I get /YMZ8


Which exchange has a continous symbol for ES and YM ?
Thanks

haha! You are a funny guy.

when you set up the continuous contract for #ES use EM as the exchange. also, you have to do this manually. the cont contract wont be on the popluated list.

hope that helps
