CME Market Data Fees – revised

March 26, 2020 by wp_user

The CME has informed Rithmic that the change in count calculation for market data subscription reporting, originally scheduled to take effect on April 1, 2020, has been postponed to take effect on May 1, 2020. This deferral provides developers with additional time to enable their apps to make use of the new plug-in capability of R | Trader Pro™. By plugging in to R | Trader Pro™, an app will not require its user to increase its max session count, which means that an additional market data subscription fee will not be incurred. Users will to be able to continue to run multiple apps, plugged in concurrently to a single instance of R | Trader Pro™, and not incur additional market data subscription fees.

CME Market Data Fees

March 19, 2020 by wp_user

As many of you know, the CME Group is increasing the real-time market data subscription fees for non-professional market data subscribers to depth of market, effective 01 April 2020. Additionally, in accordance with CME Group’s non-professional eligibility criteria, market data fees will be applied to each user id that is entitled to access the CME Group’s real-time market data, multiplied by the maximum number of concurrent sessions (the max session count) permitted for that user id. For example, if, during April 2020, a user id for a non-professional market data subscriber is entitled to access real-time market depth data from all 4 of the CME Group’s exchanges and has a max session count of 3, the fee incurred by that user id for April 2020 will be the applicable rate multiplied by 3 (the max concurrent session permitted for such user id) even if the user id logged in 2 or fewer times concurrently, or even if the user id did not login at all. Rithmic has been informed that the CME Group has not introduced any changes to counting criteria and these charges are in line with current CME Group policies.

Members of proprietary trading houses should contact their prop shop to obtain information about fees for prop shop traders.

At this time, plug-ins to apps that login for real-time market data do not incur additional market data subscription fees. Consequently, Rithmic will be modifying R | Trader Pro to accept plug-ins and will be modifying Rithmic’s R | API+ and R | Protocol API to connect to R | Trader Pro, provided that apps that connect to R | Trader Pro run on the same machine as R | Trader Pro. Although this modification to R | Trader Pro currently is under development and not yet available, Rithmic plans to modify R | API+ and R | Protocol API immediately so that current apps incorporating either of those apis need only modify their connectivity modules, not their functionality. This means that a market data subscriber who generally logs in with several apps concurrently, will be able to plug them in to R | Trader Pro and not incur additional market data subscription fees for their use. Of course, apps that do not incorporate the new versions of R | API+ or R | Protocol API will be able to continue to login, but may require a higher max session count and, therefore, incur higher fees.

Rithmic Confirms Continuing Publication of Globex Market Data Trade Messages à la FIX/FAST.

May 21, 2015 by wp_user

Rithmic, LLC is pleased to announce it will continue to publish and distribute Globex market data trade messages of the non-aggressor side of a trade even after the retirement by the CME of its Globex FIX/FAST market data feed.

Jonathan Walden, CEO of Rithmic, said: “The recent abandonment by other market data vendors of the CME’s Globex FIX/FAST market data feed in favor of the CME’s Globex MDP 3.0 market data feed shocked the trading and charting community. Charts and setups that had been carefully constructed and maintained for many years were rendered useless overnight. Given that essentially the same trade message data that is in the FIX/FAST feed is also available in the MDP 3.0 feed, we see no reason why any trader should be forced to switch his view of the markets.” Eric Aversa, Rithmic’s director of operations agreed: “If a trader wants to see only the summary portion (aggressor side) of the market data trade message, Rithmic will provide it. If instead, a trader prefers to see the market data trade messages in the form produced by FIX/FAST, Rithmic will provide those messages also.” Walden continued, “For a market data vendor to publish only the summary portion of a trade or to publish only the orders that make up the non-aggressor side of a trade is presumptive, arrogant and shows a lack of respect for that vendor’s customers. As long as such data is made available through the CME’s MDP 3.0 market data feed and as long as there is a reasonable demand for the non-aggressor market data trade messages in the FIX/FAST format currently published, Rithmic will provide access to both.”
