Not impressed seems some simple functionality has not been addressed, very possible I missed mention of it as I scanned the document,
Such as "connectivity" meaning account connections as it is now and seemingly not changing it is antiquated.
I must be sure to connect to my providers in a particular sequence to ensure proper data flow and order routing.
Competitors such as MC are way ahead in this area. IMO
I haven't looked at the document, but I would also recommend checking all the NT8 webinars on futures.io (formerly BMT) (I think there are three or four). They provide in-depth details and also a demonstration of many of the changes.
I believe you missed it. NT8 allows you to specify which connection you want to use for real time data and historical data by instrument type. Connection sequence is no longer relevant.
On "Connectivity Adapters", for Rithmic it only says "Updated API". Are we now able to connect to specific Rithmic servers? Rithmic Singapore servers for example?
I don't know if Window docking feature (like OEC Trader) has been requested. It would greatly enhance Window management.

Hello All,
Does anybody know if NT 8 will allow to trade and allocate to multiple accounts together for advisors? It never seems to be a priority for them but had been told by the support team that they would include this feature. Didn't see this in the pdf.
Thanks!

This was covered in the webinar today. My understanding is NT brokerage supports this as of today.
It says you can now nominate which data provider to use for real time and which one for historic etc ie you do not need to connect in a particular order to achieve this under v8.
