I currently have the historical data feed and have been analyzing the E-mini. I plan on soon upgrading to the real time data feed for this, likely with Interactive Brokers. When I do this, will my chart then be getting the market data from IB, or will it still come from the same source as the Historical Data I have been using? This is important because volume is an important factor in my system and I have heard that IB doesn't provide great volume data.

The historical data will still come from Sierra Chart services if you are using Sierra Chart package 3 or 5. But the real-time data will come from Interactive Brokers. You can always periodically re-download the recent data in the chart to get data from the Sierra Chart Historical Data Service.

Ok but I plan on using the automated spreadsheet trading feature, so I'm not sure if periodically re-downloading the recent data will be an option. Will the Bid/ask volume data from IB be much different than the SC historical data? Is one of the other brokers better for this?
