Connection Warning

Your platform and data feed are locked the moment you buy and cannot be switched mid-account, so choose your route (Rithmic, Tradovate, or WealthCharts) deliberately. The Rithmic route reportedly carries an extra monthly CME data fee, so confirm current pricing on Apex's site first.
