Currently CQG (www.cqg.com) is not a supported broker interface in MultiCharts. As I think that CQG is one of the big players in the market of suppliers of exchange connections (more than 35 exchanges worldwide), and as about 38 brokers/companies offer a connection through CQG technology (listed on the CQG internet pages), and as CQG offers a client API to connect to their technology, and CQG offers real time and historical tick data, I want to suggest that TS Support also integrates a broker interface to CQG in a future version of MultiCharts. By the way Your competitor in trading software, NinjaTrader (www.ninjatrader.com), already offers a broker interface to CQG.

Is there a web page to refer CQG to for brokers and data vendors about adding and developing data feeds? If you had a developer page like that, it might accelerate people adding support.

1) Zenfire User ID will be disabled if: hasn't traded in 3 months or has less than $400 in their account.

2) $25 Inactivity fee will be charged if: less than 40 contracts/ 20 round turns per month have been executed/traded.

If you do not accept these criteria, (broker) also offers CQG datafeed - with no monthly inactivity fees.

As Zenfire introduced inactivity fees it would be of much value if Multicharts, LLC, added a CQG broker interface to their trading platform. NinjaTrader has already a CQG broker interface. These and other reasons (see below) should be enough to add a CQG interface into Multicharts.
