For the CME Group, a "Non-Professional" is someone that does not trade other people's money and they are not listed on the FINRA database of brokers. But, it also means that you have a live, funded, futures trading account of your own. Refer to the following: Real-Time Exchange Data Feeds Available From Sierra Chart: Understanding and Accessing Data From the CME, CBOT, NYMEX, COMEX Exchanges Therefore, you do need to have a brokerage account to which you can connect your Sierra Chart software for verification. If you do not already have an account, then we recommend the solution outlined at the following link: Easy Solution to CME Funded Trading Account Requirement Once you have the above worked out, then you can setup the Denali Exchange Data Feed for the CME Group by following these instructions: Denali Exchange Data Feed: *Setup Instructions: CME/CBOT/NYMEX/COMEX Exchanges* As to which exchange you need, it depends on whether you need the Market Depth data or not. You do not need this data for the Numbers Bars, TPO, or Volume Profile. The differences in the three exchanges you listed above are the following: - Full CME Group (CME, CBOT, COMEX, NYMEX) with Market Depth for non-professional Trading accounts: Has the data for the entire CME Group (all 4 exchanges) along with the Market Depth data. - Full CME Group (CME, CBOT, COMEX, NYMEX) for non-professional Trading accounts: Has the data for the entire CME Group (all 4 exchanges), but only has the Top-of-Book (1 level of Market Depth). We refer to this as no market depth data, even though there is 1 level. - CME non-professional top-of-book: Has the data for just the CME Exchange of The CME Group, and only has the top-of book (1 level of Market Depth). Which you choose depends on your needs. -- You do need to be on Package 11 in order to have access to the Numbers Bars, and TPO profiles along with real-time data. To activate a package, follow the instructions at the following link: Sierra Chart Purchase and License Information: Instructions For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
