Hi guys, All I want to do is I would like to use simulator to test ES future contract from 2012, scroll through a daily chart one day at a time. That's it. I set up a trial account with you. I have SC up and running on my computer. I can only see EURUSD, so I got a $5 trial, but can't see any data for any other symbol. I tried restarting SC and changing different settings from documents I read but nothing. I find the instructions difficult. Ive spent a few hours trying to figure this out. I followed this link as best as I could: I'm finding it hard to get working and follow exactly what I need to do. https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartRealTimeFuturesStockDataFeed.php#SetupInstructions WHAT STEPS I TOOK: I logged into SC online account, I have paid $5 credit. I then select the data feed I want, and fill out the questionnaire and sign everything. When I go to 'activate' I see red error messages warning me, not to select activate unless I have a real futures account funded with money. I dont, I only have a paper account with you guys. So what do I do? Do I click 'activate'? Also I tried going into SC and disconnecting and reconnection with 'SC Data - All services [data]' but can only see EURUSD I cannot see any other symbol. After messing around with this, and it failing, I tried to add an Interactive Account as my broker (I have an IB account but I have no data subscriptions on this and do not really wish to use it - I only tried because I couldnt get anything else to work) I ideally dont want to connect with a trading account, Id rather just use historical data. I read something about problems with CME. Does that include for historical data? Can I run a sim on ES since 2012? I could not connect. Please advise, thank-you Thankyou |
