But how you ud xplain: last traded price in snap quote window many time differs widely with market watch price.This is my consistent observation in gold n crude oil(which i trade).

There are definitely some issues ,i think.
I use a charting platform with esignalfeed which is highly accurate n many times i 've noted that ZT terminal price lags by gud 2-3 minute.Today also in crude oil between 8.30-10.30 pm,.When i opened snap quote window at last,i was shocked.Market watch price 7 pts less than last traded price in snap quote.(at that time i was badly cursing my charting platformn data feed).

Persistent divergence between tradin n charting platform creates disharmony in trading.

More ever,during fast movement ,ZT terminal become unstable n some function eg square off doesn't simply work,i lost a lot due to it tonight)

Even after disabling nest plus n running ZT Alone, i 've not observed any significant improvement.
.

So far ,in my opinion/experience ZT not much reliable for serious intra day trader /scalpel.It's just as gud as others.Other factors/add ons don't count much for a serious intraday trader until the most basic issue of real time accurate price updation is maintained all time.

n guys if u ever use nest charts for intraday trading,u will be simply doomed.

Can somebody tell me wat's the best way to cross check ZT terminal prices' accuracy?

Thanks

i started using NOW when it was just launched - i started from Aug 2009 . those days - NOW was not even recommended by brokers also. and i found that NOW was more stable.

Nest Trader is used for a long time - its a commendable product from Omnesys - just use it - its more stable. only issue is the net connection

if u use Nest Trader with a dedicated VPN - u will never ever face this issue - as the speed in VPN is maintained all along the day and in our net connection there is the fluctuation in speed. whenever this issue of updation u face - try to reconcile ur terminal - and it will be ok

@eyeamravi

There may be some reasons for price lag, mainly

1. If the internet connection (speed) is low, or even good but the total usage is high.
2. Physical memory of your system is low.
3. You are running many processes at the same time and the commit charges are comparatively high. Did you ever face "your system is low on virtual memory" type of popup/error in the right hand bottom corner (taskbar).

Rectify the problem and there will be no price lag, I think.

i never ever find this observation in my terminal - my snap quote and market watch prices LTP are synchronous - so no divergences there

i use a simple data capturing util for my chart datafeed and i find it accurate - reflecting the latest updated prices and the lag is minimised to 1 sec only . also i never use the snap quote that extensively so cant comment on that

till date the most efficient trading terminal is ZT/Nest Trader than the industry standard

best way is to campare with the DMA terminal price updation as with ODIN/TT/Other broking online terminal , u will find that ZT is fastest

i tried to reply ur query but there are certain stuff that u can do to improve ur system performances.

1. every day on the onset, try to delete all the temp internet files along with the clearing of the cookies - try a good cleaning software - at least try ATF (google it)

2. try to shut down the huge mem usage process that are not necessary or related with trading.

3. increase ur pc's physical memory.

4. use a dual core cpu - preferably Athlon based rather than Intel as Athlon based system are faster compared to Intel make comparable cpu's . Athlon is superior in raw power.

5. use a wired net connection i place of wireless net connection as wired 1 is far superior in net speed retention

try these rectification and u will find improvement in ur system performance and in this way ur ZT will run faster and divergences will be reduced comparably

TP
u r using CCleaner everyday before shutting down, its a very good practice. either after start of machine or b4 shutting down.
But CCleaner is a bigger program whereas ATF is a smaller util.

detailed notes abut ATF
ATF-Cleaner.exe is temp file cleaner. There became a need for a good temp file cleaner that could do the job safely and without removing files that are crucial to windows, so the use of ATF

ATF-Cleaners options are fairly straight forward and its simplicity is part of its charm.

its a small util doing the clearing of the temp files
