I'm having an issue with Zenfire's live feed on the 6E (6/13). The issue is that the live feed appears to be showing a price which is about 8 ticks higher than the actual market price.
I know the live price is incorrect because I can briefly see the actual market price when I reload the chart. Upon reloading the chart, the historical prices are shown accurately so this is just an issue with the last price shown by the live feed.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions on resolving this issue.
I also experienced a similar thing today, but I was only SIM trading the 6/13 contract and haven't had the 3/13 contract up for a few days. I knew it hadn't rolled yet but since I was SIM'ing i didnt think it would matter much. But anyhow after closing my session this morning, I reopened Ninja and the chart was completely different than what I traded live. Almost like the 6/13 contract was showing the 3/13 contract plotting when loading with historical data (or vice verse). Is that possible? I was worried it had something to do with the Ninja update too... since I updated from 7.0.1.11 to 7.0.1.12 yesterday.
The only thing that you can't see with the charts below is that I keep a simple volume bar chart at the bottom that I drag down to hide some of the time. I attached the chart from my trading session and then what it looked like when I restarted Ninja a few hours later.
Does anyone know why this occurred? It's scary to think what might have happened if I were trading Live. But my trade transactions appear to be correct in the order history.
Thanks.

I think I solved my own issue. I wasn't aware there was a default ninja setting that attempts to merge data. Don't quite understand why that would be default but it appears to be the cause. Here is a thread on it:
I spoke with Eliot at Mirus Futures about this. More information will be forthcoming shortly from Mirus, but the bottom line is Silvester17 is right - it's really positive news not negative. It seems Rithmic is just upset about losing their customer and posted about it in such a fashion to cause drama, in my opinion.
I don't want to go too much in detail. zen-fire disconnected the rithmic risk platform and developed their own platform. so much for "they've stopped all development on Zen-Fire"
Yes, Zen-Fire will continue. It is not EOL or anything of the sort. Mirus also has developed BigTick, which has different features from Zen-Fire. But the core features of Zen-Fire will remain the same and remain available. The two products co-exist.
Anyone that is currently on Zen-Fire will be able to remain on Zen-Fire, there is no cause for concern in my opinion.
This is not how Rithmic runs its business and not the impression they gave me after 5 years of a
working relationship. The announcement was a professional decision to inform traders (customers), so they can make their own decisions going forward.
They did not put down anyone, claimed superiority or implied that anyone should trade over their data.
