I am trying to connect to TD Ameritrade to make a TPO chart for the ES futures. The SPX500 data appears to be correctly connected but I cannot obtain the ESZ18 data

From: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/AmeriTrade.php#Introduction Futures trading and real-time futures market data is *not* supported with the interface that TD Ameritrade provides to Sierra Chart and other programs. Although you can use the Sierra Chart Real-Time and Historical Exchange Data Feed, and access the real-time futures data supported by this Sierra Chart data feed when using your TD Ameritrade account. You will be able to take advantage of the lower-priced CME Group exchange fees since you are using a trading account through TD Ameritrade. The Sierra Chart Real-Time and Historical Exchange Data Feed has its own separate pricing from the Sierra Chart Service Packages and therefore is an additional cost.
