You need to connect to your live futures trading account (Interactive Brokers) as documented here:

This section here explains why this is necessary:

Ok thanks. Just to clarify when I use my symbol and see the {M} by symbol I know that its using Sierra chart data feed and not ib one. Is that correct?

What doesnt make sense to me is the data feed doesnt seem any different when Im using my IB connection even though there is a {M} next to it. The data is exactly the same. Am I missing something here? How do I know Im actually even receiving a different data stream?

Yes this is correct understanding.

When the market is actively trading, you will notice a drastic difference compared to the Interactive Brokers feed.

One way to tell clearly is to add the "Number of Trades" study to the chart.
