Hello,
All the sudden, it seemed, my 1min SPX chart stopped updating. I went through many "fixes" found by typing in "Sierra Chart not updating" but the one may have caused the problem was the Windows 10 Defender virus checker may have been running one of its quick scans; i have excluded the SCID file type. I am a new user on a trial basis and don't know what to do at this point. Thanks

Tell us the exact symbol of the chart. It could not be SPX.

$SPX is not going to update in real time. It requires a separately paid for data feed. Refer to:

As an alternative you can use the CFD symbol SPX500. This will update in real time now.
