HI I have connected to Sc-data All Services, however i cannot open Futures Pairs normally typed with the Symbol ex: F.US.EPZ18
or with the symbol ESU8_ I loaded also a chartbook from Tradepro academy which is the website who referred me to Sierra Charts Platform_
I have read instructions and i thought the data connection was free in the initial trial for 14 days?
Pls could you you take a look at my account to see if i am properly connected? I get the green light on top
Thank you for assistance .

1. "F.US.EPZ18" is a CQG specific symbol. If you have a CQG account, then refer to the setup instructions here:
CQG Trading Platform Service: Setup Instructions



2. If you require real-time futures data, then refer to:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_FuturesData.php

Be sure to read the page linked above *completely* before you ask further questions about real-time futures data. And *think twice* before you ask questions about futures data.


You can access Historical Intraday Data using the included Sierra Chart Historical Data Service:
Sierra Chart Historical Data Service


You would need to use the following symbol ESU18 (notice the 2 digit year) for ESU8.

Refer to the Changing the Symbol of a Chart documentation here:
