I ve tried several, all from the Sierra Chart menu. The index does not update. Please suggest which symbol I need to use. I am subscribed to SC real time data etc. I should be fine with the data subscriptions. Thank you, Dem |

This symbol is $INX but you need to activate the S&P Indices exchange for your account. Or you can use the IB index symbol which begins with SPX-. You can find it in File >> Find Symbol >> IB Indexes. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

Could you please explain how I would activate the SP Indices Exchange on my account? When I go to the Services Data page I am subscribed to everything you offer. Thanks |

Thank you. Enabled indices but now: $INX chart does not update. I need to delete and redownload data each time to see the relationship with the futures. Also Premiums, which I was trying to use instead does not load at all. Is that another subscription? Dem |

Restart Sierra Chart, open a chart for $INX only and then post a copy of the Message Log by following these instructions: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=PostingInformation.php#log What specific premium symbol do you want to use?

$INX is updating now. It's the only symbol in the platform. Will attempt to open chart inside chartbook. I was attempting to open the premium chart of ESH15-$INX. This premium does not load. Here's the section of Log for that operation: Currently no data in file to display. Will start historical data download and real-time updates.

$INX works fine now. ESH15-$INX does not load. However this is a secondary issue and I'm happy like this if you are busy. Thank you, Dem |

We know what the problem is with ESH15-$INX. It will be resolved by the end of the day tomorrow. It will be necessary to download the latest prerelease at that time.
