Post From: Cumulative data large difference on data feeds

I can't understand why you are saying the above comment. How can EUREX trades occur between the quoted bid and ask prices? Trades either go at bid or at offer, they can never be in between in a central exchange market like futures?
This is because of the data from the data feed itself or the exchange. You can see this by looking at the Time and Sales window and you will see some of the trades are between the bid and ask.

You seem to be blaming data feeds all the time but is it really a data feed issue? I have my doubts.

It is primarily related to the data feed, and the fact that the data feeds do not pass through the necessary data from the exchange for accurate bid volume and ask volume determination.

There is also the particular algorithm being used to determine the bid volume and ask volume in real time and with historical data. There is a good algorithm which is used with CQG and the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed.

We definitely do not recommend Rithmic for EUREX because there are too many associated problems with that and we will not go into details on that. It is far too long and complex of a technical discussion. We disfavor Rithmic.

You will need to use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed:

Or use CQG:

When using CQG you must update to the latest version of Sierra Chart to use the proper algorithm.
