I purchased package 10 and would like to know what I need to do in order to do get real time data so I can do simulated trading for the stocks/futures below. I don't plan on getting a brokerage account and do live trading at this time but I do want to do simulated real time trading at this time. Thanks.

1. I want to simulate trading for the ES, YM, NQ, and the minis for each with real time data.
2. I want to simulate trading for the SPY, XLY, XLI, XLC, XLI, XLK, XLE, etc with real time data.
3. I want to simulate trading for US stocks with real time data.

The issue you will have is with item #1. In order to get real-time data for the CME Group at the non-professional exchange fee, you need to have a live, funded, futures trading account. Refer to the following:
Real-Time Exchange Data Feeds Available From Sierra Chart: Understanding and Accessing Data From the CME, CBOT, NYMEX, COMEX Exchanges

Otherwise, to get the data for items 2 and 3 you would use our NASDAQ TotalView exchange that is part of the Denali Exchange Data Feed. Refer to the notes for this exchange here:
Denali Exchange Data Feed: Nasdaq TotalView Data Feed Notes

In order to setup the data, follow the instructions at the following links:
- For CME Group data:
Denali Exchange Data Feed: *Setup Instructions: CME/CBOT/NYMEX/COMEX Exchanges*

- For NASDAQ TotalView exchange:
Denali Exchange Data Feed: *Setup Instructions: All Other Exchanges*
