The Binance market data feed is now available. This is for market data only. It is available when Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Service is set to SC Data-All Services. Follow the instructions here to update the Symbol Settings: Global Symbol Settings: Update Global Symbol Settings You can access the symbols through File >> Find Symbol >> Binance >> (Get Binance Symbols) >> Get Symbols [button]. For more information, refer to: Cryptocurrency / Bitcoin Data and Trading Services: Setup Instructions The Binance symbols can also be accessed when using various other Trading services. Specifically the ones that also provide access to BitMex symbols. Historical data is only being maintained as of December 18, 2020. Not earlier. We have no other prior data for the Binance symbols. The most actively traded Binance symbol is: BTCUSDT-BINANCE We have seen some issues with market depth data from Binance and as we continue to monitor we will see how best to resolve this. Another thing to be aware of is that Binance uses fractional quantities. Sierra Chart does not have support for fractional quantities for trades. Fractional quantities are supported for orders and market depth data but not for trades. So what we do is we multiply the quantity by 1,000,000 in order to shift the values to the right of the decimal point over to the left and the portion to the left of the decimal point is what is used as the quantity. In some cases this may not be sufficiently large enough of a value and in other cases, it is too large of a value. At this point in time we just do not have a good solution to this and we do not think we ever will. There just is not a proper way to solve this without support for fractional quantities. We may change the multiplier to 10,000 as we typically have used in the past. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
