Data Connections

[samish18]

How do the data connections compare to one another in terms of performance - is there one with less latency than others. Additionally, when I connect, my connection simply says "live" - which connection is this?

Hello samish18,

Thank you for your post.

If you are comparing connections, I recommend starting with the following Help Guide page which lists the historical and real-time data provided by each connectivity provider that is supported by our platform:

• https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...y_provider.htm

'Live' and 'Simulation' would be the 'NinjaTrader' connection, which is used to connect to live NinjaTrader Brokerage accounts and compatible Tradovate accounts.
NinjaTrader, LLC is not a market data provider, and we do not perform latency or performance tests on these connections.
The performance of each connection would be subject to the network you are connecting from.
I suggest contacting a connectivity provider that you are interested in for assistance testing their performance on your network.

Please let us know if we may be of any further assistance.
