Hello, Been trialing SC for a month now and I have a question about which datafeeds I should purchase. I trade Stocks and Forex using Interactive Brokers. I'm currently using SC as a front end for IB and have it setup to use IB for trading data feed for stocks and a few currencies. I primarily use the DOM to trade stocks and like it quite a bit. I subscribe to the IB package that gives me "top of book" which doesn't show me the L2 quotes unfortunately but is at least real-time. What I want is to be able to see the orderbook not just the top orders. I'm trying to determine if I should get the IB L2 quotes or something else? Which feed is going to provide me with the data I want? The SC feed doesn't provide L2 quotes I believe? Is there an alternate that does which might be better than IB? I am also not opposed to switching to another broker if it is as economical as IB, but which integrates better with SC? Regards, |

I apologize if I was not clear. I have read the IB page and know I CAN use IB L2 data. What I was wondering was if there was a better/alternate solution?

We really do not have anything else that Sierra Chart supports that provides level 2 Equities data.
