Following up on my previous question;
According to IB;
"The latest production version of the platform (build 969) enables the Time & Sales windows to use real-time last tick data for all products that support this feature, which includes stocks and futures worldwide. Let’s note that all other products will continue to show real-time Time & Sales derived from the aggregated real-time volume. If traders prefer to use real-time aggregated/averaging of trades (approximately every 3-4 seconds) instead of tick-by-tick data for all products, they should go to Global Configuration > Information Tools > Time & Sales > Settings, and check “Always use real-time volume to approximate Time and Sales data.”

Does this mean now Sierra charts can accommodate the footprint charts with IB's real time tick by tick data and no other data feed is necessary?
Pls advise.
