Hi,

I have been using your data feed without any issue for the last 6 months with 3 systems however today my third connection's CME market data feed was deactivated. It also happened last Friday but I reactivated it without any problem. Today, I tried to reactivate it again in the Account management section here and every time I get the message "Failed to activate the Market Data Feed." It never happened in the last 6 months now twice in two weeks. Something must be off.

My Services Balance can easily cover the cost so that's not the issue.

In the software, my data/trade service setting is set to Interactive Broker and every day my 3 systems are directly connected to my funded Interactive Brokers' trading account using their IB Gateway app so I would be surprised if it is related to the live trading account existence confirmation.

I can't really figure out what is the source of the problem and I would like your help.

Thank you.

You should have received a notice about this. The CME will not allow you to use more than two real-time connections when using a nonprofessional CME exchange fee. You will need to instead activate the professional exchange fees which are much higher, if you want to use more than two connections.

I've activated the professional exchange and re-signed the market data agreement but my professional status is still non-professional even if I reload the page.

Can you look into it?

Thank you.

You should now be able to activate the 3rd connection.
