I am trying to get a $VIX chart and struggling to get it to load. Enclosed are screenshots of the error I am receiving - "user is not authorized for one or more of the specified symbols". I have followed all the instructions - CFE exchange agreement is complete, I have activated top of book for the CFE. I am connected to Denali and it is set to SC - Data all services. Not sure what to do next. Thank you for your assistance.

There are two different VIX items out there. One is the VIX Futures, the other is the $VIX index.

You have signed up for the VIX futures, for which the symbol is (with SC Data - All Services selected) VX?##_FUT_CFE and is listed under Futures-CFE on the Find Symbol window.

In order to get the $VIX index, you need to use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed and activate the CBOE Indices. You will find the instructions for this at the following link:

For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
