Apart from being able to execute orders, is there any difference between using the Simulated Futures Trading Service with real-time data and connecting with a live-funded trading account?

There is not going to be any difference with the data. If you are asking if there will be a difference in the actual order fills, there will be some difference, as we can not mimic the exact order matching that is done by the exchange in live trading, but it will be close.

The data you were getting when you used Sierra Chart is the same as the real-time data would be. Your chartbooks should work with the curent data. If they are older than January 2021, then there is a possibility they may not work, as there have been some changes since that time. It does not matter what package you are using with regards to the chartbooks.

Thank you. One last question. When using the Simulated Futures Trading service, will I have access to lower-cost exchange fees for non-professionals? Or I can only get low fees by using a live, funded, trading account?

For the CME Group, you can only get the Non-Professional data by having a live, funded, futures trading account. Refer to the following: Denali Exchange Data Feed: Understanding and Accessing Data From the CME, CBOT, NYMEX, COMEX Exchanges You can use our "Simulated Futures Trading Service" with our delayed streaming data. There is a specific option to select in the service selection for this.
