I am asking because I try to get the feed with the structure information on this website and I cant make it work.

Is it normal ? Should I stop trying to trade options on sierra chart ?

Here is what your telling us to input

Equity and Index Options Format
General Format:  [Underlying Symbol]-OPT-[Last Trading Date (YYYYMMDD or YYYYMM)]-[Strike Price]-[Call or Put]-[Exchange]-[Multiplier]-[Currency Code]-[Optional Trading Class]
Example:  SPY-OPT-20100331-110-P-SMART-100-USD
Example:  QQQ-OPT-20141219-50-C-SMART-100-USD
Example:  SPX-OPT-20141218-1350-C-SMART-100-USD
Note:  Enter the Strike Price exactly as it is shown within the TWS symbol description. For example, enter 100.0 exactly as 100.0.


Thanks in advance.


Edit 1

I manage to make it work ... You have to input the .0 after the price And I don't get the download of the graph But I get the last price and the graph when my symbol is on, I will check If i can make transaction from the Chart directly now.
