NT7 taking 3 minutes 20 seconds to load. I scoured and tried all the fixes on the forums; repaired the db, closed the work spaces, deleted all the work space xml files, gave NT application the highest priorities on the resources etc.. I have a new power workstation so the hardware can't be the problem.
Turns out the problem is not NT7 but rather the Continuum free data connection for Futures. I had it enabled to connect on start up.
When I disabled this feature NT7 loaded up in around 10 seconds. When I manually connected to Continuum it took 3 minutes to connect. Tested this multiple times from different locations and the same delay.
I have a 30MB and a 50MB fibre connection and everything else works bullet fast.
Why is Continuum free futures data connection so slow to connect from South Asia?
Is there a fix to this or another paid data service provider I can use? I tried signing up for Rithmic but it is the most arcane sign up process I have come across in my life and I have failed!
Thanks.
