If I connect Sierra Chart to IBKR, can I trade perpetual futures contracts (or continuous futures contracts) as IBKR offers through the TWS and its application? This expiration is characterized because the rollovers are done automatically and not all brokers offer them. And not all softwares that you could connect through IBKR can trade it.

With Sierra Chart you can view Continuous Futures Contracts. Refer to the following: Continuous Futures Contract Charts But you are never actually trading a Continuous Futures Contract, you are only trading the front contract. The rest of the contracts are just there to fill in the data. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
