We use both and the execution is good with both. However, they differ in cost and the history they provide.
I think that Rithmic provides longer tick history.
CQG credentials also allow you to trade via all CQG products via AMP. Rithmic allows you to execute via R Trader with the same credentials and you can use it as a backup.
Thank you,

Sorry @md1933 for butting in here but it might be useful info if @mattz can clarify it.
@mattz or anybody here, i’m using cqg data on my life account and it’s showing 10 level depth of market each side, but when doing combine with rithmic it’s showing around 20 or something depth of market each side, can you confirm this please.
Glad to help, no problem.
I checked on the native application of CQG (CQG Trader) and it has 10 deep while R-Trader had more than 20.
Thanks,

does the fact that CQG uses a new CME format for bundling volume together and Rithmic doesn't mean that a Volume Profile is more accurate with Rithmic? or does it not make any difference?
Related question:
Rithmic wants 49/month just for their platform + the CME, other exchange fee.
Is there a way to use another more useful platform (e.g. Ninja) to avoid the Rithmic platform fee, and just pay for the data (10$ per month per exhcange)?
Check with your broker. AMP offers Rithmic for a minimum of $20 per month plus exchange fees. If you use Rithmic for order routing at their round turn rate of $0.50 then that credits against the minimum. That is, if you do 40 round turns a month then that satisfies the minimum and the data is essentially free. Other brokers may have something similar. Be aware that Rithmic does not support some exchanges and market internals data that CQG does. They do the majors for the US and Europe.
