Ticks

[AndyM]

I understand that CME group are going to change how they package ticks. They are going to send out randomised packets of ticks which will make volume not as accurate as it has been. Will Continuum be able to break out the ticks from randomised packaging if this occurs?

Randomized? That's a new take on things.

CME are going to less data. We will be seeing less data which means less info. CME group says it’s in the name of more efficiency. It looks like it will potentially cover up larger orders from what the market makers were able to place before.

That's the same argument that was made when they went to more data. Hiding big orders.

Both ways can't be true.

Anyways - those posts cover everything mentioned here and elsewhere.

I'm not looking for an argument, I just want to know if Continuum and Kinetick will be able to handle the new data.

By the way you are probably right I'm overly worried about it

Hello AndyM,

Thank you for your post.

Continuum is already using the MDP data. Kinetick will likely make the transition before the deadline, but no word on the date they will move to MDP yet.
