Post From: Options for trading stocks

Hi,

Im currently looking into options for trading stocks with Sierra. So far TD Ameritrade was looking like the best option but I read that their data feed / API is proprietary and that concerns me.

Please could someone from Sierra explain to me how changes are handled between Ameritrade and Sierra. If Ameritrade changes something then does Sierra know about it ahead of time so that you can ensure the relevant updates are made on your side? Or are you (and us) left hanging?

If any TD Ameritrade clients are reading this, how has your experience been using TDA and Sierra?

Lastly, are there any broker/data feed options supported with Sierra that are not proprietary? (im specifically looking for Stocks,...not futures)

thanks.
