And, Cone, I've also (trial) subscribed to (but am still evaluating) the IQFeed platform as a means to solve the problems I have reported in this thread (https://www.wealth-lab.com/Discussions/9928). So far, I can say that you were definitely correct when you said that IQFeed was a much better streaming source of data than the ThinkorSwim API. Very noticeable speed improvement. And ... NO ERRORS, even with multiple stragegies running simultaneously.
The only issue I have with it so far is that my best strategies do not throw entry signals while in "Auto-Place" mode. So, in order to enter a trade, I need to:
1) Run backtests through out the day, then...
2) Send Opened Positions to Quotes, then ...
3) Manage entry positions from within "Quotes and Price Triggers" window.
Seems too tedious, so I must be doing something wrong. And, if my entry order is a Market Order, then I've missed my mark most of the time.
Anything come to mind?
