me).(pls. correct me if i am wrong)
- I want to use market profile tool(TPO PROFILE ANALYSIS)+volume analysis(price by volume),

solution of minimum cost that cover my needs above.

Therefore, we just recommend that you use Sierra Chart service package 3 and the included Sierra Chart Historical Data Service which has 10 minute delayed data which does not continuously update. Here is additional information:
Sierra Chart Historical Data Service

The future symbol that you are looking for begins with B6

Otherwise the cost of the real-time data is too expensive and gets too complicated.

-No thank you. as i understand,service pach 3 does not have TPO profile tool.
-So, please tell me the cost of the real-time data(that you said it is expensive) and if i have a funded futures trading account, what will be the cost?

thank you for patience,

We apologize. You will need Sierra Chart service package 5. We overlooked that detail about the TPO Profile Chart requirement. We had focused on the data requirement and what the minimum service package was for the historical data.

The data feed will be 35 USD per month + 95 USD per month for the exchange fee. This is in addition to what you pay for Sierra Chart.

If you have a futures trading account with one of the supported trading services:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/Data.php#Services

Then you do not have to pay these additional costs for the data feed.

hi,
-As i understand from you now is:

-35 USD for the data feed (what is called Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed)
-95 USD for the exchange fee (CME)

and
-34 USD for Sierra Chart with Advanced Features (Service Package 5).

Please correct me if wrong, otherwise confirm.

thank you

What you see on the title bar is correct.

Open a chart for the symbol B6M16 through File >> Find Symbol.

Here are detailed instructions:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_GettingStarted.php#OpenChart

Let us know if you are receiving the data.

You might want to investigate Transact Futures in Chicago.
A good introducing broker is Cannon Trading in Beverly Hills, California (yeah baby).

They have all CME products so the british pound future will be no problem. I mention
this because this combination works so well together with Sierra Charts.

You can qualify with them for non-pro on CME, so only 5 dollars per month instead of
94.50 a month (yikes).

Just my 2 cents.
