Hi I've just reactivated my account and paid for package number 11. However, I'm unsure on how to add additional data fees in order to me to start charting. I'm also unsure as to whether the 'non professional' data feed is sufficient for my needs. For context, I will be using the charting software just for Market Profile and Footprint charts. Could you please advise on how I go about adding/paying for data connection to my account and also whether the non professional feed is sufficient? Thanks |

In general, the Professional vs Non-Professional is whether you get paid to trade other people's money. If you do, then you are a Professional, and you should be registered with the NFA. Otherwise, you are a non-professional. But, the CME Group, adds an additional twist, where they require that you have a live, funded, futures trading account in order to be able to get their data at the non-professional rate. Refer to the following for more information on this: Real-Time Exchange Data Feeds Available From Sierra Chart: Understanding and Accessing Data From the CME, CBOT, NYMEX, COMEX Exchanges If you do not have a live, funded, futures trading account, then we recommend the solution outlined at the following link: Easy Solution to CME Funded Trading Account Requirement Once you have worked out the issue of Professional v Non-Professional, then you would go through the Setup Instructions for the Denali Exchange Data Feed at the following links: - For the CME Group data: Denali Exchange Data Feed: *Setup Instructions: CME/CBOT/NYMEX/COMEX Exchanges* - For CFE, EUREX, and NASDAQ TotalView: Denali Exchange Data Feed: *Setup Instructions: All Other Exchanges* For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
