I got a direct account and have SC All data. I am able to get CLZ18-CLZ19.FUT_SPREAD.NYMEX either intraday or historical. I am trying to do a difference of calendar spreads. In CQG I would do it as spread(CLES1Z18-CLES1Z19) How can I get this to work with SC exchange data. All I want is historical (non realtime) difference of calendar spreads.I can use the difference or butterfly spread study but is there a way to input this directly Also with my SC exchange data feed, I am not able to use the Get Spreads function (which is one of the reason I signed up for the direct account). My evaluation ends this week and I would very much like both to work to then sign up for the direct account thanks |

You will need to activate the Sierra Chart Exchange Data feed to access the spread symbols. This is documented here: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartRealTimeFuturesStockDataFeed.php#ExchangeTradedSpreads Is this an exchange traded spread?: I am trying to do a difference of calendar spreads. In CQG I would do it as spread(CLES1Z18-CLES1Z19)

Just to summarize: a) First get a Sierra Charts Direct account - so either get a package 3 or 5 Then subscribe to Sierra Chart Exchange Data feed (which is 15.75 for 100 symbols) Then I can get Sierra exchange spreads from the Find Symbol menu But I do not want real time data since I will be getting that through CQG Fix through my broker and only want daily exchange spreads Also if I do all this, can I still get spread of 2 exchange spreads i.e. (CLZ18-CLF19.FUT_SPREAD.NYMEX)-(CLZ19-CLF20.FUT_SPREAD.NYMEX) OR b) If anyway I cannot get (CLZ18-CLF19.FUT_SPREAD.NYMEX)-(CLZ19-CLF20.FUT_SPREAD.NYMEX) without using a Difference study, can I just have the Direct account where I can type the exchange spreads manually with my CQG Fix realtime data feed thanks much |

a) First get a Sierra Charts Direct account - so either get a package 3 or 5 Then subscribe to Sierra Chart Exchange Data feed (which is 15.75 for 100 symbols) No. You just need to pay for a real-time connection and the minimum price of that would be 25 USD per month.You do not have to pay for any exchange fees just to get the historical spread data. Also if I do all this, can I still get spread of 2 exchange spreads i.e. (CLZ18-CLF19.FUT_SPREAD.NYMEX)-(CLZ19-CLF20.FUT_SPREAD.NYMEX) This is an example of an exchange listed butterfly spread symbol: CL:BF Z18-F19-G19.FUT_SPREAD.NYMEX can I just have the Direct account where I can type the exchange spreads manually with my CQG Fix realtime data feed Yes as long as you know what the symbols are.
