Hi, Sierra Chart is exactly 10 minutes real time. I use SC data. Here is a short video explaining what I see - https://www.loom.com/share/db49797cdcaa425a907dd0b039d67a79

This creates a complication using Top step trader.

It's my understanding that while you are in their simulated accounts, you're not regarded as a professional trader. Only when they offer you a real funded account will you be liable for the professional fees. Since Sierra is partnered with them, is that how you understand it as well? Question 2: I see AMP Futures also offer Sierra Chart as a platform. Can they also implement Teton Futures Order Routing? |

Yes and no. The main issue with the Prop firms is that they do not count as a live trading account in order to qualify for the non-professional exchange fees from the CME Group. Therefore, in order to get the CME data from the Denali Exchange Data feed, you need to have another live trading account that will fulfill this requirement. We have worked with a couple of brokers that can create an account for you for a minimal deposit in order to qualify as a live trading account for the CME Group requirement. Refer to the information here: Easy Solution to CME Funded Trading Account Requirement Question 2:
I see AMP Futures also offer Sierra Chart as a platform. Can they also implement Teton Futures Order Routing? AMP has decided to wait to implement the Teton Order Routing Service. So it is not available through them, and we do not know when it will be. But, you can use them to fulfill the live trading account requirement. They will set you up with a CQG account for your order routing in which case you would follow the instructions at the following link to connect your Sierra Chart to that CQG account: CQG Trading Platform Service: Setup Instructions For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Thanks for your patience on this topic. It sounds quite complicated to link Sierra with TopStep. Question 1: Am I understanding this correctly? If I want access to the Denali feed and I want to link TopStep with Sierra, then I will have to fund an account with Amp Futures (or any other approved broker) who will create an account for me with CQG. I know I have to manually go into the AMP / CQG account once a month in order to satisfy the non-professional requirements. If this understanding is correct, then would I be able execute trades on the Sierra platform that will be logged / linked with my TopStep account? Question 2: Can you recommend a few cost effective brokers that we can use for futures trading and that integrates seamlessly with Sierra and the Denali feed? As a bonus, that also integrates seamlessly with the Teton Futures Order Routing? |

Yes!: It sounds quite complicated to link Sierra with TopStep. We really do not want Top Step trader users or any of these trading evaluators using Sierra Chart. We wish our users would not be using them.1. We no longer recommend AMP/CQG for this purpose. We have a new solution: Easy Solution to CME Funded Trading Account Requirement The last thing we want is more CQG users. We dislike CQG very very much. If this understanding is correct, then would I be able execute trades on the Sierra platform that will be logged / linked with my TopStep account? Yes.
