Hi, I'm getting this message from my broker (AMP) when I try to connect: "Connection error message from service: CQG WebAPI/Logon unsuccessful. Server Message: Your logon is disabled. Contact your FCM"
I'm not sure why since I've just made a payment to Sierra and my service package appears active. Please advise!...Thank you!

We would not know that. You need to ask your broker.

If you follow the instructions we gave in post #2 you can begin to receive real-time data now.

Yes I did follow the instruction and I am receiving real data but please explain me why I'm not connecting to CQG data anymore and why the symbols have changed?

You are not connecting to CQG because your broker disconnected you. You need to ask your broker why they did this.

The symbols changed because you changed your Trading Service. Each trading service uses different symbols for the data. You can quickly change the symbols for your charts to what is needed for the currently selected service by opening your Chartbooks and selecting Edit >> Translate Symbols to Current Service.
