I am not sure I understand your respond to my question. I trade daily and would like to use your trading platform. Can your trading platform be use for option trading? If it can- may I have support from someone to showing me how to set it up and trade with it.

You can trade options, but the only practical way Sierra Chart will support this is by setting a chart or trade DOM to an option symbol.

Since you are using Interactive Brokers, refer to the documentation here about option symbols:

Now we are getting somewhere. I trade on the charts and I currently use your charts. What I need is some questions to be answered on the chart setting window and the trade window and Dom. You have given me the Equity Option Symbol format.
