Post From: Forex pairs on Sierra Chart

fxcm.com and "FXCM Trading Station" are suggested by SC, with caveat that SC won't work with FXCM demo account.
Too bad, because TS is extremely fragile and slower than SC.
Example: add a symbol to active list, click "ok" without first "apply" and hung program must be killed via TaskManager.

I tried to compare Forex charts, using these currency pairs.
First column is Forex, last is Sierra nearest symbol, for continuous charts.
EUR/USD  Euro/US dollar  MFU14
CHF/JPY  Swiss franc/Japanese yen  UPU14
GBP/CHF  Pound sterling/Swiss franc  UNU14
EUR/AUD  Euro/Australian dollar  EQU14
EUR/CAD  Euro/Canadian dollar  UEU14
AUD/CAD  Australian dollar/Canadian dollar  ASU14
CAD/JPY  Canadian dollar/Japanese yen  UFU14
GBP/NZD  Pound sterling/New Zealand dollar  GNU14
AUD/NZD  Australian dollar/New Zealand dollar  ARU14

The two sets of charts have little resemblance, the SC are all too thin.
I conclude that the SC are futures, not actual currency pairs.

Is there any easy way for me to see FX pairs on SC without first
committing to a live account at fxcm.com?
