Hello SC team, I would like to do some real time practice on ES chart.


I have just paid 11 - Integrated Advanced (Monthly).

I have selected
- SC Data - All Serives
- ESH25-CME March 2025
- Chart Data Type: Intraday Chart
- submitted Non-Professional

But I still get delayed chart.
What else I am missing out?

Should i activate Exchange Service CME non-professional top-of-book if I use it for backtesting real time chart without live trading?

B.Regards
Fish

Hi, at this moment, E-Mini S&P 500(ES) & Micro E-Mini S&P 500(MES) Index @ CME

I just submitted Non-Professional Certification and Uniform Subscriber Addendum that seemed I missed before the post.

So what is next and how to adjust setting in Sierra Chart setting?

Thx

Here are your next steps:
1. Activate the exchange(s) for which you want the real-time data for the CME Group at the following link:
https://www.sierrachart.com/UserControlPanel.php?page=DenaliDataFeed#Exchanges

2. Connect your Sierra Chart to your Interactive Brokers account to verify the account and update your "Verified Until" date. To connect to Interactive Brokers, follow these instructions:
Interactive Brokers Trading Service: Setup Instructions

You can see if you have made a proper connection to Interactive Brokers if your "Verified Until" date is in the future (when you make a proper connection the date is updated to 30 days in the future). You can view this date at the following link:
https://www.sierrachart.com/UserControlPanel.php?page=DenaliDataFeed#Exchanges

--

If you are not going to stay connected to Interactive Brokers, then you will need to remember to connect at least once a month for this verification. Refer to the following instructions:
Denali Exchange Data Feed: Connecting Only Once a Month to Trading Account to Support CME Group Exchange Fees

Hi Team,

Thank you for your steps.

Meanwhile I am figuring out the connection with Interactive Broker, I am wondering the "Easy Solution with Stage 5 account " as below link is another good and easy way for stimulate trading for real time data backtest which provide better routing data if I don't want to mess with Interactive Broker?

Easy Solution to CME Funded Trading Account Requirement

Any better advantages with that?

Many thx

Are you running the Trader WorkStation before connecting to the IB Data Feed in Sierra Chart?

Nice. What about opening a trading account with Stage 5 with a balance of 100 USD.

That 100 USD just for opening and it’s not monthly fee right?
At the end of the day I can take it back right?

This is our understanding. But you should check with Stage 5 to verify.
