I'm so tired of the lag of NT8 that I spent a large portion of today testing the lag with RTY today, (because ES and NQ are SUPER laggy all the time It would take forever to test them). I use my ChartTime indicator, which is super basic and reads the lag of an INSTRUMENT, not just a single chart.
I started testing by removing all instruments except RTY, then removing charts, removing indicators, new workspaces, running a small time frame chart with no indicators, a large one also with no indicators and nothing helps. This is ONGOING for years through many NT updates... people complain but NT still lags when the market moves (and the big money can be made fast).
I read all the posts over the years and checked all the options to invalidate lag such as turning off all custom indicators, make sure your connection is secure, use a simple workspace, safe mode and on and on. My fast machine lags but my cpu use is never over 20% and my memory around 63% during lag so ITS NOT ME. AND ITS NOT EVERYONE ELSE EITHER FOR ALL THESE YEARS!
Ninjatrader, for once and for all (of us), create a diagnostic routine running in NT8 that can sort out the lag and send YOU or US a message or something so we all don't spend all our time (and yours), testing, complaining and missing huge sums of $$$ when we can't trade fast markets.
I don't post much but it really is ridiculous at this point.
