I am only using Sierra Chart for Data and Charting. If you are not supporting Transact, then you need to provide a way for us to buy SC data at non-professional rate without opening a new trading account with new firms for Teton Service. Is this fight between Sierra Chart vs NinjaTrader? Having different platforms is good so product will become better. If you are not willing to provide a better way to purchase non-professional data feed from you many people will leave you. I start hating your service from now on. |

We developed this easy solution to solve this problem to use the Denali data feed and nonprofessional CME exchange fees: Easy Solution to CME Funded Trading Account Requirement If you are not willing to provide a better way to purchase non-professional data feed from you many people will leave you. I start hating your service from now on. You should hate the CME. It is their rules creating this problem. Your hatred is towards the CME. Not us. The facts on this matter are very clear.If you want to leave, we cannot help that. But we are not going to support Transact. We have done all we can to provide you superior services (Denali data feed, and Teton order routing) and save customers money. Opening an account for 100 USD to meet the CME funded trading account requirement is very easy. And the owner of that brokerage firm, is a former Infinity Futures broker. Is this fight between Sierra Chart vs NinjaTrader? No, not at all. We are phasing out Transact, Gain capital, and CTS and to some extent also CQG. In order to provide a unified high-quality solution which saves customers money. And deliver them superior services.And what the reality is, is that because we are providing a higher quality level of service for market data and order routing and a lower cost as compared to all of these other services, this will bring more Sierra Chart users. So your conclusion is factually incorrect. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users. Try to keep your questions brief and to the point. Be aware of support policy: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=PostingInformation.php#GeneralInformation 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: 2022-03-07 18:38:10

Hi Trader, I certainly understand where you are coming from as it is never fun changing your trading setup. I believe your feelings may be similar to what Sierra has been feeling for many years providing support for third party data feeds that they couldn't control, which took a tremendous amount of resources as it appeared they spent a lot of time troubleshooting third party feeds which took time away from enhancements to Sierra Chart. I am extremely excited for this transition as I feel it will provide traders with better quality as well as improving the overall Sierra Chart product. Short term pain, long term gain. I believe the best solution for you would be to switch to Sierra Teton Order Routing with Denali for real time and historical data. I believe this complete A-Z solution maintained by Sierra Chart. is a major benefit from multiple third party connections, like TransAct, that Sierra cannot control. On top of that, I feel it is the best overall quality and value for traders. Additionally, I believe traders should be able to save a lot of money from the reduced commissions as well! If you open an account at Stage 5 using Sierra Chart Teton Order Routing, you will receive $0.20 per side commissions on the micros and $0.45 commissions on non-micros plus exchange and regulatory fees.

@User418458, Being a team made up of traders ourselves, we certainly understand the frustration with this forced change and the reluctance to make a move from what might have been working for you. However, this change wasn't the result of an action that Sierra Chart has taken, so hopefully you can redirect some of that frustration toward quickly making a move to Teton and finding yourself in what we think is a better trading setup. We have already moved a number of people from Transact to Teton seamlessly. We truly believe that Teton is a much better solution than Transact anyway. In our opinion, Teton is a state-of-the-art solution direct into the exchange. We have had great feedback at Edge Clear on the use of Teton so far. We highly encourage you to make the relatively painless swap with Edge Clear. We invite you to reach out to our team. We will have a dedicated personal broker assigned to you who will walk you through this process.

Actually my real concern is do I have to pay data fee to both Teton/Stage 5 and Sierra Chart? I am not very successful with futures. I dont want these eat up my profit, if I am able to make any. LOL.

No, you would not be charged for any platform or market data fees by Stage 5. You would pay for the SierraChart service package plus any live exchange data directly through your SierraChart account. Please let us know if you have any further questions! Thank you, Anthony Giacomin Stage 5 Trading Trading derivatives carries a high degree of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors.

Thank you for the answer. I might open a Stage 5 Account. I am not sure why 'Sierra_Chart Engineering' got upset with my comment about 'hate'. LOL. They did not mention anything about the duplicate data fee which is a concern for many people in our discord group.

That sounds great! We are here to help, so please let us know what we can do to assist you through the transition. Our goal is to help you make the move with as little hiccups as possible. Also, I think Sierra is going to put out a notice for Transact users soon providing the details and solutions available, which will hopefully help clear up any confusion there may be. We look forward to you hopefully joining the Stage 5 family! Thank you, Anthony Giacomin Stage 5 Trading Trading derivatives carries a high degree of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors.
