Compare the two enclosed video clips I uploaded to my site:
Ninja Clip
TOS Clip
Every morning before I put up a post on Evil Speculator I scan through dozens of charts on a hunt for valid setups. I keep trying to use Ninja because *I prefer using it* but it's simply too slow. I can't get into the flow because the data feed is lagging. Now compare it with TOS which is blazingly fast. Same connection, same system. What gives?
I complained about this about a year ago and frankly there is nothing else dragging down Ninja on my system - it's clearly the data connection. My trading buddy in Australia is complaining about the same thing. Is it something in the settings? Clearly Kinetick should be FASTER than a FREE service provided by TOS, right? I tried both the Kinetick and the IQFeed connectors. I tried to close all other open charts. Nothing doing. I also see the same lag on a SUPER fast pimped out dedicated production system we are running in a server farm in Florida - super fast pipe - nothing else running - 32GB of RAM. It's as fast as they come and I think that proves my point.
If this could be addressed I would be able to dump TOS and only use Ninja for charting. That also would mean that you would see more NinjaTrader charts on Evil Speculator ;-)
Any help/pointers/suggestions that truly address this problem would be appreciated.
