Post From: CQG FIX vs. CQG WebAPI with Sierra Chart

I am a very happy user of Sierra Chart with CQG data (CQG FIX). For me, this is the best platform/data combo I have ever used. Excellent speed and reliability, I like it even more than TT.
That is good. And good you are not affected by this:

So now my question is, with CQG Web API instead of CQG FIX in Sierra Chart, can I expect the same flawless speed and performance like I have now with CQG FIX ? I scalp extremely shortterm (seconds) mostly in NQ, ES and FDAX, so very fast markets, and therefore I need an excellent feed and execution.
There is no reason why they cannot set you up to use CQG FIX and if you are having good performance with that, we strongly recommend staying with CQG FIX.
