ALSO

In the past I had Sierra Chart up on two laptops, sitting side by side.

I had a quote board on one to watch many markets, and on the other I had my ES charts for trading. Since I changed to denali I no longer can use two programs on sude by side computers

how do I use two computers now?

Sierra Chart does not support these type of symbols any longer:
CL#

You need to use this feature instead:

Continuous Futures Contract Charts

To use the Denali Exchange Data Feed on 2 computers at the same time, refer to:

Ok, So under the Denali there are no continuous contracts available for download

and cannot be used on two side by side computers.

are those features still available on the real time Siera Chart data feed?

This is not making sense.

We have given you specific instructions to accomplish what you need. Once again:
Continuous Futures Contract Charts (Continuous Contract charts)

To use the Denali Exchange Data Feed on 2 computers at the same time, refer to:
Denali Exchange Data Feed: Denali Exchange Data Feed on Two Computers Simultaneously (using Sierra Chart on two computers)


What you want to do is fully supported. Just follow through the instructions and pay the necessary fees to the exchange.

We do not have continuous contract symbols. In order to get a continuous contract, you need to do what is outlined at the following link, which is to create a Continuous Contract Chart:

We received this from you by email:

Please look at this thread
Sierra Chart Engineering has posted to the thread: "continuous bond futures". Click on the following link to view the response:
continuous bond futures

My first question was simple, I wanted the continuous contract.

Your support led me around in circles.

If I can't get a downloadable continuous contract using Denali then i need a different data service, not run run around by your support.


We are not leading you around in circles. Explain to us in detail, why there is a problem with the highly reliable well engineered Continuous Futures Contract functionality:
Continuous Futures Contract Charts: Introduction


That does what you need. You do not need anything else.

These older symbols which use the # like ES# never worked reliably and were phased out by us years ago. And did not support back adjustments.

We develop proper working solutions and you seem to claim, this functionality does not do what you need. There are no problems with it. We do not need to waste any time. Use the functionality as documented and as provided, which works and is very reliable:
