Thanks for the suggestion! I forwarded it over to our development team. I'm not sure how it will be prioritized but I like the idea and hope to see it in future updates. I'll let you know if/when it is added.

Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
You are correct about the trailing limit order, we do not currently have that. I did forward over your link and post to our development team to see if it would be something we can implement.
As for the written guide, I can send you a copy via email. Please DM me and I can send you the full guide as well as API / Formula documentation.

I was just provided with the questions transcript from the Q&A and it looks like I did miss your questions somehow, although about 14 minutes in I had already covered MBO/Rithmic. I apologize, I assure you it was not intentional as this is a pretty easy one to answer.
The answer to your first two is yes, the data will be identical as it is supplied from CME (Bookmap receives the same MBO data as us).
The answer to your last questions is I am not sure. There are too many trading platforms out there for me to be intimately familiar with. But I know that the first step will be simply adding MBO to the DOM/ladder so that you can see buy/sell order sizes at every price increment instead of the standard ten levels.
I should also politely add that we did our best with the AMA (it is our first) and I genuinely thought we got to all of the questions.

Hey Guys! I just wanna say, "Thank You" for going through the effort to find my questions! I do appreciate the response! I really goes to show that you guys are committed to providing good customer service which is a biggie to me.
I've been hesitating to sign-up with @Bookmap. When I heard u guys mention u were implementing MBO data it was music to my ears! I am interested to learn more as you develop that side of your platform. Please keep me posted.
I'm a little late with my question, but I am just reaching the point where it has become relevant. I did go back and review all of the questions and answers related to joining IronBeam as a Canadian trader. However, I have the following additional question, if you would be so kind.
I do have a USD bank account. I have the MICR-encoded account number. Question: Will it be possible to deposit and withdraw money from the IronBeam account by connecting my bank account to my trading account? If so, are there any fees associated with depositing/withdrawing? If not, what are the options for Canadian clients?
You can fund via your bank account as long as the account is in your name. You can deposit via ACH at no charge if you have a US bank account. If your bank account is Canadian, you would need to fund via either check or wire. You can withdraw for free via check. Wire withdrawals are $40, or $60 if international.

I am giving this a bump. It originally was posted in another thread, and may have missed receiving attention at the time. Today I copied it into this thread, but it came in with the original date, which is in the past. So I am bumping it so @Ironbeam will have the opportunity to see it and respond to @Liv Pro's questions.

Hi, I'm an Ironbeam client through Optimus, currently using CQG data within Sierra Charts and have a couple of questions for you.
First question is on CQG's full suite of data. I'm looking for real-time cash index as well as equity data which CQG has. After speaking with Optimus this afternoon they have advised that Ironbeam doesn't offer this data though. Is there a reason for this? I believe that these data options are available through other brokers so was curious as to why you don't have them.
Second question regards the TT/Sierra connection. You've mentioned above that you do not currently support this. Is there any intention of doing so in the future? Sierra's data options seem to be expanding (and include cash indices as well as equities) and are reasonably priced. If the full suite of CQG data isn't available, having Sierra's Denali feed as an executable option would be great and would eliminate the need to subscribe to 2 different data sources.
If it's ok with you I'd like to address this because you are our customer:
1) Here are the data points that CQG can enable Here
If Iron Beam can enable, we can request it. As you see, these are not free.
2) Iron bean does not have the TT/Sierra execution. However, you can see get their data (denali) and execute via your CQG. Denali is viewable data, not executable data. This is to the best of my understanding.
I have not seen any significant improvement in TT over Rithmic or CQG in terms of execution.
Maybe user experience is different, so again, this is just an opinion.
Thank you,
Matt Z
