Hello
I am a new Topstep Trader client and have been accepted into their program but I wish to use Sierra Charts to trade Oil not Ninja trader and I already have an active account with you.
Topstep has sent me my connection information using CTS T4 FIX (trading) Data/Trade Service Settings which I plugged in and got connected. My problem is that I want to trade Oil Futures but cannot find the symbol I am used to. When I go to symbol selection I do not find CME engery selection all I find is CME NYMEX Futures with a CL
listed as CL20160400.CME_NY. Is that the correct symbol I want to trade oil futures at the CME? Sorry to take your time up on such a newbie question but that is never the symbol I traded when trading the CL at the CME. Thanks in advance for your time and patience

CL.20160400.CME_NY is the correct symbol to use when using CTS T4.
