Hello, I am going to do a funding evaluation program through Apex Trader Funding and would like to use Sierra Chart and the Denali data feed especially for executing on the Sierra Chart DOM. However, with Apex Trader Funding you have to connect to a Rithmic data feed. Is there any way I can use Sierra Chart and Danali data feed when trading through an evaluation program/funding account with Apex Trader Funding? I am also a non-professional. I appreciate your support. Thank you.

The first answer is that you can definitely use the Denali data when connected to Rithmic. You do not need to use the Rithmic data. But, in order to qualify as a non-professional for the CME Group, you need to have a live, funded, futures trading account, and Prop Firms, like Apex, do not count towards this requirement. Refer to the information here: Real-Time Exchange Data Feeds Available From Sierra Chart: Understanding and Accessing Data From the CME, CBOT, NYMEX, COMEX Exchanges If you do not have a live, funded, futures trading account that meets the above requirement, then we recommend the solution outlined at the following link: Easy Solution to CME Funded Trading Account Requirement Worst case, you could pay the Professional fees, but we really do not recommend this, as they are much higher than the non-professional. If you will not be continuously connected to your live, funded, trading account, then you will need to connect to it at least once a month to verify the account for the CME Group to keep your non-professional status. Refer to the instructions at the following link: Real-Time Exchange Data Feeds Available From Sierra Chart: Connecting Only Once a Month to Trading Account to Support CME Group Exchange Fees Once you have worked out the above, then you need to be on one of the "Integrated" packages in order to be able to get the real-time data and to be able to connect to Rithmic. Refer to the instructions here: Sierra Chart Purchase and License Information: Instructions In order to connect to Rithmic, you will need to follow these instructions: Rithmic Trading Platform Service: Setup Instructions And finally, to setup the Denali Exchange Data Feed for the CME Group data, follow these instructions: Denali Exchange Data Feed: *Setup Instructions: CME/CBOT/NYMEX/COMEX Exchanges* For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
