<< Is CQG better for daytrading the S&P than Tradestation/BMI. I wrestle with
this issue all the time. Comparing tick bars, CQG will consistently have
more
of them in any given time period, indicating of course that one may be
missing
actual swing highs and lows if these ticks are missed at critical areas. Was
that bar's high really 920.50 or was it 920.70, but BMI missed that tick?
Clearly this has implications for interpretation and order placement. I read
recently that George Angell has both systems running on different computers
at
all times. Perhaps that is the answer. Anybody else contemplate their navel
to this degree?

CQG by far. It really is high class stuff. Cleanest data of them all. The
entire floor down at the Merc uses the older CQG system one. I use that there
and the CQG for windows upstairs, which is just amazing. I just got a Dell
computer and had a few problems that necessitated my re-booting the computer a
few times during the day. The CQG system did not miss a beat and reloaded and
updated without the flaws and crashes and missing data I ahve seen with BMI.
BMI is good , but CQG is the best of the best. Expensive, but notihng is
better. I split up my screens using Market Profile, cash spooz, ndc, and a 5
minute bar. The system is king.
