Hello, I would like to virtual trade only at the moment. I need the Numbers Bars Tool. Which of the new trading packages would be suggested? I'm considering the Package 5. What costs would be associated with this and any other suggestions? Thanks! |

Simulated (virtual) trading is available in all of the Sierra Chart packages. As is access to our Simulated Futures Trading Service (refer to the information here: Simulated Futures Trading Service). For information on Simulation Mode, refer to the following: Trade Simulation If you want Numbers Bars, then you need to be on the Advanced Package (Package 5). If you are not needing Real-Time data, then that is all you need. You have access to the Delayed Streaming Data for the CME Group and EUREX which you can use for your virtual trading. Refer to the following: Delayed Exchange Data Feed For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-03-15 14:23:55

Ok, I would like the real time data for virtual trading. If I went for package 11, would there be any other fees associated in addition to the $46? Would I need a funded account for virtual? Thanks. |

If you want Real-Time data, then you would need to be on Package 11 and you will need to also pay for the Exchange Fees. Due to CME Group rules, you will need a funded futures trading account in order to qualify for the lower-priced CME exchange fees. This is true regardless of whether you are actually trading or not. Refer to the information here: Real-Time Exchange Data Feeds Available From Sierra Chart: Understanding and Accessing Data From the CME, CBOT, NYMEX, COMEX Exchanges We really recommend just using the delayed data while you are working on your trading processes. In all manners it acts just like the real-time data, but is behind the market.

Ok. Is AMP Global still on the list of partnered brokers for the funded accounts? Is there an account funding minimum? Thanks! |

Yes, you can use AMP to have a funded account. You will have to check with them on the Minimum funding amount.

One last question. What about TD Ameritrade?

We do not have support for TD Ameritrade. It would have to be a broker that supports one of the Supported Trading Services listed on this page: Supported Data and Trading Services: Supported Services For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Hello. I’ve purchased the none live data but now I would like the real-time data package. Would I have to pay the whole fee for the one I want or would the package that I currently have credit some of the new fee? Thanks. |

If I purchase package 11, will the simulated trading platform also have realtime data streaming or will it continue to have the 10 10 lag? Thanks. |

You need to change to Package 11 and activate the exchange. Both steps are required in order to get the real-time data.

Hi, I will be purchasing the Package 11. I have a partnered trading account and I would like to trade Crude Oil (CL) and the Nasdaq Emini (NQ). I believe I will need to activate the CME for Nasdaq, which one will I need for Crude Oil? Also, will I pay for them all through Sierra Chart and what would the potential monthly cost be? Thanks. |
