Can I avoid paying for Interactive Brokers Market Data and use Denali/Exchange feed from Sierra Charts instead while trading with Interactive Brokers?
How can this be done?

Yes this should be possible. You just do not pay the exchange fees through Interactive Brokers and for the symbols you want real-time data in Sierra Chart, you pay the exchange fees with our Denali Data Feed.

You can access all of the exchanges here:

However, I cannot see the data in the charts when connected to Interactive Brokers Trading Service. As attached it shows error and then blanks out. Symbol for Interactive Broker is ESTX50 and in denali exchanges is FESX (delayed).
Does this also mean that I do not need to pay AMP Futures or Stage5 as well for Market Data ?

Do you just want delayed data for EUREX symbols? Or did you need real-time data?

I need real-time; however, I can see delayed data when using Teton.

How can I trade with Interactive Brokers using the Denali feed rather than Market Data from interactive brokers?

You are already setup to get data for the CME Group from us. So if you connected to Interactive Brokers, you would be getting the data for the CME Group from us. Refer to the following:
Real-Time Exchange Data Feeds Available From Sierra Chart: Integration with Trading Services

If you want real-time EUREX data from us as well, then follow the instructions at the following link:
Denali Exchange Data Feed: *Setup Instructions: All Other Exchanges*

Thanks for pointing out. I was not paying attention to the "M" indicator. I am receiving data from Denali as I turned off the market data from Interactive Brokers.

1. The EUREX exchange data subscription page still requires $50, even when I switched from Two to One System. Will this reset next month to $25?

2. Using the single system/machine, can I use another installation to connect to Teton/AMP and One Instance of that installation by doing File - New Instance (not install) to communicate to Teton/Dorman-Stage5?

3. Do Interactive Broker trades also get routed through one of the Teton routing services such as Dorman and AMP?

I appreciate all your input.

Yes, you are already paying for the two systems for this month, therefore if you add another exchange this month you will be required to pay the additional exchange fee. On April 1, 2024, since you have changed the option to 1 system, you will only be charged the 1 exchange fee, and if you activate the EUREX at that time, you will only pay the one fee.

2. Using the single system/machine, can I use another installation to connect to Teton/AMP and One Instance of that installation by doing File - New Instance (not install) to communicate to Teton/Dorman-Stage5?

No, you can not use the option for "File >> New Instance" to connect to a different trading account. The instances started by using "File >> New Instance" are connected to the Main Instance from which they were started, so they use the same data and trading service as the Main Instance is connected to.

What you need to do in this situation is install a second Sierra Chart on the same computer. Then set that second installation to connect to the other broker. There are no additional fees for this setup. Refer to the following for how install another Sierra Chart:
Using Multiple Data and Trading Services at the Same Time: Step-By-Step Instructions to Install Multiple Copies of Sierra Chart

You are allowed to have up to 3 separate installations of Sierra Chart on a single system all receiving the data from our Denali Exchange Data Feed. Refer to the following:
Denali Exchange Data Feed: Denali Exchange Data Feed Connections on Same Computer Simultaneously

3. Do Interactive Broker trades also get routed through one of the Teton routing services such as Dorman and AMP?

No, Interactive Brokers uses their own order routing, so it does not use our Teton order routing, or another third party provider.

A final question on this subject .. If I am using Teton with either Dorman or AMP routing service, I don't have to have market data from Stage5(broker for Dorman routing) or AMP (for Teton Routing) to trade with Stage5 or AMP. Is that correct?

Yes this is correct. For market data you will use our Denali Data Feed. Or if you just want delayed data, then you do not have to pay the exchange fees.
