I’m looking to trade SPY options on SC. What package in denali would I need to get to do this?

If i purchase package 11, does it give me SPY data? or do i need to pay for another denali service?

Did you want to trade options or did you just need market data for options? Sierra Chart does not have market data for equity options.

The "Integrated Advanced" package (Package 11) is the one you need, as this allows you to connect to your trading service and get real-time data and also gives you the ability to use the Numbers Bars (Footprints) study. Refer to the information for the packages at the following link:
Description of Service Packages and Pricing: Packages

When you are ready to change to a paid package, follow the instructions at the following link:
Sierra Chart Purchase and License Information: Instructions

As noted above, we do not have data for equity options. You can get the general data for equities by using our "U.S. Equities Consolidated Tape" exchange. Follow the instructions at the following link to set this up:
Denali Exchange Data Feed: *Setup Instructions: All Other Exchanges*

Or you can use the data from your broker, which we have to assume is Interactive Brokers, as that is the only broker that we connect with that supports trading equities. You can also get the options data from them as well.
