1.) I have my own personally funded account with SC Level 5. 2.) I have/use a Rithmic data feed set up through my broker and have it toggled to such. I have read the Support section on "SC Historical Data". My questions are: a.) If I toggle to "SC Historical Data" at Global Settings:Data/Trade Service Settings, will I lose any of the tick by tick data currently in/on my charts? I use many TPO/Numbers Bars/Range Bars/Vol. by Price,Bid-Ask Diff. etc. studies. b.) What constitutes a tick by tick "request"? I understand that with Level 5 I'm entitled to 1600 such "requests". With Rithmic, if I'm not online and logged in to SC, I do not get tick by tick backfill for the time I was off. My tick based charts are blank or straightlined. If I missed some intraday session time, because, for instance, I was away from the desk for a day or two, would I be correct in understanding that if I were to toggle to "SC Historical Data", I could recall the tick by tick data that I missed to populate my tick based charts to do any playback and/or research accurately, whereas with Rithmic only, I have no such option? Thank you. |
