Why should having more than 10K symbols leave you with many missing ticks,
unless the server is inefficient. I can collect every tick on over 200,000
symbols (including options on equities, indexes and futures) using the Universal
Market Data Server--even though this can be in excess of 3,000,000 trades plus
several million bid/ask changes on a busy day. Is there a limit to the number
of trades/bid-ask changes TS5 can handle if the entire symbol universe is
collected?
