Getting off topic now but in reality your latency is probably more important than your upload and download speed. I use pingplotter for this. Old post here on nexusfi.com, and the software is even better than it was then but I think you'll get the picture
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Interesting. Never heard of it. I'm downloading the free version - see what it finds. Hard to tell sometimes whether there's a latency issue or a trade just doesn't fill. No fill happens in bonds more often than other instruments but I don't think it's due to latency.
What do you do if you detect something in your system? How do you trace the source?

It will tell you where on the route your problem is. I have multiple Internet connections, and there are multiple broker gateways available to me, so by switching provider or gateway I can normally take an alternative route across the internet avoiding the troublesome node.
I would also like to know what would make Ninja 8 faster at Market Replay Simulation. Is it a better graphics card or a CPU? How useful would it be to go beyond 4 cores that I currently have? Will extra cores be utilized? Can someone from Ninja answer this?
Ok... Now for the Caveat: I am only on sim. I don't know enough to tell you if there will be any difference in RT data. But I don't see a reason for it not to give the same performance.
Great advice I will soon be following, as my old windows 7 is getting sidelined.
What parts would you advise to keep, if any? Can I just change the central unit?
