CQG Data

CQG receives its data directly from the exchanges. Immediately after CQG IC has been enabled, the system begins collecting and displaying real-time data from the CQG network.

This data is continually monitored to filter out bad ticks. When bad ticks are detected, corrections are immediately processed. Likewise, when inserts, deletions, and fast market indications are received, the system immediately sends them to your system.

In the event of an interruption in the operation of the software or the data source, the system automatically corrects the data and fills in the gaps that occurred as a result of the interruption.

Note about CQG FX data

CQG Comprehensive FX and FX Index data comes from Tullet Prebon. This feed is indicative, not traded. FX Major cross rates update up to once per second. The comprehensive symbols, such as EURUSD, quote an indicative bid-ask range. The index symbol, such as IEURUSD, quotes the midpoint of this range, also up to once per second.
