To have direct market access, high speed order routing and tick-by-tick market data, traders use CQG technology. The broker debits the routing fee and passes it on to this technology provider.
Tick-by-tick quotes are one of the key success factors in futures trading! Many brokers (including Interactive Brokers) save costs by providing 1/2 second snapshot quotes. With 1/2 second snapshot quotes a trader is blind. 75% of all price movements in the market are not visible. Due to this missing data technical analysis (charts and indicators) is only approximate. Important chart types such as tick charts, range bars and renko bars are either not available or totally unreliable. The order book is missing key information. Limit and stop orders may not be executed. And, orders are executed at a slower speed, often at inferior prices.
High speed order execution makes a difference. One point better executed, means € 5, € 10 or € 25 extra profit per future.
CQG order routing fee: | € of $ 0,50 per lot per order |
CQG applies a monthly user charge of € 10. The fixed fee related to third party order routing is not included in the monthly total prices shown in the tables above, but it will be included and visible in the debit of the pack price on the account statement.
High-volume traders can opt for a flat fee of € 395 per month instead of paying the 0,50 per lot per side.
CQG offers up to 1.000 ticks per second. The traded market volume is the most precise available.
