Post From: mixing professional and personal data feed

For the time being, I am going to trade both on separate accounts with separate data feed. So do I still need to pay for professional data feed even if I am only using this particular data for personal use?

Sorry, we were not considering this situation where you would get data from different sources. If you are going to get the data from Rithmic for the installation of Sierra Chart where you are connecting to the Prop Firm and then get the data from our Denali Exchange Data Feed for the installation of Sierra Chart for your personal trading.

In this case we do see where you would be both a Professional and a Non-Professional. Although we can not say whether the people on Reddit are right or wrong. This is getting into a gray area and we can not give an absolute answer. This is something the CME Group would have to answer.

The only thing we can say is that it is possible to have the setup you are referring to. If you are setup to get data from us, but you are not going to use that in the installation that connects to the Prop Firm, then in that installation you would would need to set the option for "Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Common Settings >> Allow Support For Sierra Chart Data Feeds" to "No". This will allow you to get the data from Rithmic instead of from us.
