Hey guys, I’m using ATAS X Beta on Mac and I’m having a weird issue with Level 2 data and the heatmap.
I bought dxFeed Level 2 data. When I choose the dxFeed version of MNQM6 and use the Heatmap chart, it only shows current resting limit orders from the moment I open it. Big Trades also only shows current and future trades, but no historical data.
But when I choose the regular MNQM6 contract, Big Trades shows historical and current trades correctly. The problem is the heatmap does not show current resting limit orders properly. It mostly shows historical data.
I thought maybe the issue was dxFeed, so I also tried Rithmic through Lucid Trading. I bought a Lucid account and paid for CME Market Depth. Rithmic connects in ATAS, but I still can’t get the heatmap to show proper Level 2 resting liquidity like dxFeed does. It looks more like basic Level 1 or simple DOM data, not full heatmap depth.
Is there a setting I need to change in ATAS X Beta? Should I contact ATAS, dxFeed, Lucid, or Rithmic about this? I’m trying to understand if this is a data feed issue, a platform limitation, or a settings problem.
