Just looking for some opinions. I use Zenfire to trade Futures but am seeing problems with it and am wondering about switching to either Kinetick or Rythmic. I would appreciate any opinions as to which data provider is the better of the two.

Thanks

The correct spelling is Rithmic, and you can find a lot of threads on this subject already...

What kind of problems are you having?

Mike

I decided to try MC to compare things with Ninja and I found that Zenfire doesn't support range bars in MC beyond 24 hours of data so that is an issue. Also, talking to a few others, most prefer Kinetick over Zenfire anyway so wanted to get a few others opinions.

Rithmic is the big brother of zen, it won't have historical data in MultiCharts either.

Kinetick is NT only, and is the OEM of IQFeed which works with all major platforms.

I am currently using Rithmic and it does have historiscal data in MC. The historical data you get is from the start of the contract to its current only.

Odd that there is a relationship between Rithmic and ZenFire but there is no historical with ZenFire.

Thanks

Guppy.

Zen-Fire does support years of historical minute and tick data.
