1. How can show IB GDX position in SC Positions, TAL, chart windows?

2. How can get realtime data on GDX chart from IB?

3. What are the differences in the other data feed options for this?

1. We assume by GDX you are referring to the stock ticker for "VanEck Gold Miners ETF".

If you are opening positions in Sierra Chart with Interactive Brokers, then the information for these positions will be in your trading windows and charts.

If you are not opening the positions in Sierra Chart, then refer to the following:
Interactive Brokers Trading Service: Orders Entered from Trader Workstation do Not Appear in Sierra Chart

2. Enter the symbol per what is needed for Interactive Brokers. You cannot enter just the ticker, you need the full IB name as exampled here:
Interactive Brokers Symbols: Stock Format

3. The other option for data is or "U.S. Equities Consolidated Tape" exchange. Refer to the information on this exchange at the following link:

Yes that's the correct ETF.

1. Is there more than one option for datafeed, Denali, US Equities Consolidated, and Nasdaq feed?

2. What would the differences be in this case?

3. Is there one that includes the Nasdaq BANK index?

1. We are not understanding this followup. Question 1 was about positions, which do not have any real relationship to orders and positions, which are handled by the exchange.

2. Refer to the link we gave. You need to make sure you use the correct symbol for IB.

3. We do not have data for the NASDAQ Bank Index. You would have to see if you can get that from Interactive Brokers. Or, if you just want to get a chart for it, you could see if you can get that data from DTN IQ Feed, which is another data source we support - refer to the following for them:

Was able to get the realtime price updates, orders, and positions from IB to work in SC.

1. What is the difference between "US Equities Consolidated Tape" and "NASDAQ TotalView US Stock Data" ?

2. Either feed is only showing activation option for Professionals. As discussed and set recently for CME group, use is Non-Professional. Please enable those options.

1. The NASDAQ TotalView exchange is the price and volume data for trading that occurs only on the NASDAQ exchange for a product. The U.S. Equities Consolidated Tape is the price and volume data from multiple exchanges in the U.S. where a product trades.

The U.S. Equities information will match the general price and volume data that is reported for stocks.

Refer to the following:
Denali Exchange Data Feed: Nasdaq TotalView Data Feed Notes

US Stock/Equities Consolidated Tape Data Feed

2. You have not filled out the agreements. Follow the instructions at the following link to setup this data:
