Hallo, I paid in Interactive Brokers data for CFE to have live VX futures data. But Sierra do not display the data in charts on live basis. I can see data to the time of starting Sierra or when I do "Disconnect" and then "Connect to data feed" I cannot play intraday charts with this. Can you help me, please? I tried to read support a tried some steps, but I do not know what to do...Thank you in advance.

For these particular CBOE futures symbols you need to also modify the expiry date portion of the symbol to include the day of the month. Here is the format: Interactive Brokers Symbols: General Format with Day of Month Here are instructions to modify the symbol of the chart: Changing the Symbol of a Chart Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Ok, thank you, but where to put these informations? I cannot find where to write it. General Format with Day of Month: [underlying symbol]-[4 digit year, 2 digit month, 2 digit day of month]-[exchange]-[currency code]-[multiplier] Example: VIX-20160921-CFE-USD-1000 (CBOE Volatility Index futures) Note: The symbol format is required for VIX futures. The Continuous Futures Contract feature is not supported with this symbol format. |

Select File >> Find Symbol. Type the current symbol into the Selected Symbol box and press Open Intraday Chart. You need to look up the current expiry date in TWS.
