We just had a look at the CQG Web API regarding this. Take our advice. Please get off of CQG. Amp supports Teton order routing. We recommend using Teton order routing which is our own order routing direct to the exchange.

CQG is just terrible in its design and it is not reliable. We do not want you using CQG and you are exposing yourself to problems like this. CQG is very poor in its design. We do not like it. We hate CQG.


Take our advice and get off of CQG. We are not going to provide any further support for CQG.

If you continue to use CQG you are using it against our own advice.

CQG is very treacherous with its design. We have to set three different order IDs to even modify an order. Including the prior client order identifier. This is stupid. It does not matter what the prior client order identifier is which must match. But what if this is wrong for some reason. Then the order modification gets rejected. Same thing with order cancellation. This is complete stupidity. Even CME iLink 3 does not even need this.

CQG is just absolutely terrible. They are passing through so much complexity, to the application program that it makes no sense at all. It is so treacherous. With price data formatting. Order IDs, and security IDs. Security IDs change based upon the connection. Every connection uses a different security identifier. Why they pass through all of this complexity to the application program, and make errors more likely, makes no sense.
