Post From: Quick question about Rithmic (Not related to the outage)

Hey everyone,

I have what I hope will be a quick question for you all, and I couldn't find an answer anywhere else. To preface this, I have Package 11 with the denali data feed, and am paying the non professional price for CME data.

I currently have 3 instances of SC running.

Instance 1 = my live account with Amp futures (Should've used stage 5, but too late), which has Teton order routing enabled. Working great.

Instance 2 = The instance I use to back test on

Instance 3 = The instance I use when trading my prop firm accounts such as Topstep, Trade Day, etc. (using rithmic connections)

My question is this...

I just so happen to attempt connecting to Topstep using rithmic in the 3rd instance of SC during the issue where rithmic wasn't working, and the server list came back blank for 24 hours.

I then went back to Amp futures thinking the issue was that I didn't have Rithmic data enabled with Amp, and activated a rithmic connection with them, and am paying for it.

Since I have to connect to my live account once per month to maintain non-professional status, Do I need to have Rithmic enabled through Amp futures in order to access the rithmic connection through topstep? Or is it an unnecessary redundant connection? I am fully connected to rithmic on topstep now and am able to trade successfully. But don't want to keep the additional rithmic connection with Amp if I can just leave it as Amp with and Teton, and connect to that once per month to maintain the non-professional status.

Thanks for the help!
