Using 1631 DTS: CQG FIX Is there any way i could get Options data from SC Data when connected to the CQG trading service? I am looking for the [M] I know from futures, which I do not see for Options. Just in case this doesn't work, is there any trading service that works well with your real time options data feed? Is there any way I could use the DOM for an option on CL futures (say C.US.CLEZ175400) with your SC Data real time feed and trade from it (DOM) through CQG? |

You can get the futures options data but you cannot trade using those same symbols.

Can I have two different chart windows in the same Chartbook, for two different Option Symbols as follows: - one SC Data Symbol for real time data through your service (say "LOZ17 C5400.FUT_OPT.NYMEX") - the other with the equivalent CQG Symbol for trading that Option (say "C.US.CLEZ175400") |

Yes of course this is no problem at all.

I have just tried opening an intraday Window for "LOZ17 C5400.FUT_OPT.NYMEX" while connected to CQG, it doesn't work: "Symbol is unknown", "Download failed". It is correct, in post #3 I did not ask whether it works when connected to CQG, but a connection to CQG is required for trading the options, so here's my try at asking what I meant: is there any way to get your real time and/or historical data for Options (on futures) while connected to CQG (or any other DTS than SC Data)? This is possible for futures and I'm very happy with it ([M]). I'm not necessarily looking for "[M]" (although that would be lovely), a two chart windows solutions would do it as well. |

Yes. And we just realized that we did not add the necessary Symbol Settings for this. This is done now. Follow the instructions here to update the Symbol Settings: Global Symbol Settings: Update Global Symbol Settings After that, follow the instructions in this post here: Futures Options Now Available with Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed! | Post: 128596 We are also in the process of moving options to a different server. Update Sierra Chart to the current version following the instructions here: Software Download: Fast Update This is essential.
