Tentatively we will be discontinuing the old Sierra Chart/Barchart Exchange Data Feed at the end of April 2023. This is information about this feed:
Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed

We will be not allowing any new exchange activations after March 5, 2023.

These exchanges will be discontinued:

- S&P Indices
- Dow Jones Indices
- Dow Jones Indices (Professional)
- CBOE Indices
- NASDAQ Indices
- U.S. Equities (NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX)
- Hong Kong Futures Exchange
- Hong Kong Futures Exchange with Market Depth
- MorningStar FOREX spot/cash
- CBOE Europe Equities
---

The new data feeds that we will be offering to replace the above are as follows:

1. https://indexes.nasdaqomx.com/Home/GidsDirectory

There are quite a few symbols that this data feed provides an there is also a PDF document listing the symbols that we will post here today. It will be a sufficient replacement for the above indices. And bring a lot of new global indices, in real time as well! We should be able to deliver this free for all of our users on Service Package 10 or higher.

This is going to be a great enhancement for Sierra Chart.

And for the volatility index you can use the S&P volatility index futures with the CFE data feed with the Denali Data Feed:
Denali Exchange Data Feed

NASDAQ global indices also has a volatility index which is very close to what the CBOE provides.

2. For US equities, we are going to provide the direct CTA/UTP consolidated tape data feeds. These will be provided both delayed and real time. The exchange fee cost will be in the range of 1 to 3 USD per month.


3. The MorningStar Forex data, almost no one uses that. All of ours users use our FXCM Forex/CFD data feed:
Sierra Chart Real Time and Historical Forex and CFD Data Service

4. Hong Kong futures will be discontinued. For this Hong Kong futures data you can look at using either CQG or Interactive Brokers. We have no further comment on this.

Important notice: In the case of CQG, this CQG account must come through a broker only, and must be a broker that supports Hong Kong futures. You cannot independently subscribe to a CQG account and Hong Kong futures. This will not work.

We are currently working on all of the physical/technical infrastructure for the new feeds.
