  I've encountered similar issues with the live datafeed to BitMEX before. In my case, the problem was actually caused by my antivirus software blocking the connection. It's worth checking if your antivirus or firewall settings are interfering with the datafeed. You can try temporarily disabling them or adding an exception for BitMEX.

  Sometimes, the live datafeed to BitMEX may not stay open due to high server load or heavy traffic. This can happen during periods of high market volatility or when there is a surge in trading activity. In such cases, the datafeed may get temporarily overwhelmed, leading to disconnections. Unfortunately, there's not much you can do in this situation except to wait for the load to decrease.
