I've noticed a significant delay in order execution when trading the SP500 e-mini futures on the Sierra platform using the Denali data feed. My past two trades have I've had about a 1 profit when I pressed the Flatten button but upon order execution, I suffered a 2 tick loss. The volume and liquidity today are not low enough today to account for that. Is there anything I can do to measure or hasten the speed of order execution?

The Denali data has no effect upon this. You are using CQG. What is relevant, is the Internet connectivity, between Sierra Chart and the CQG server. And also CQG.
