I have just made a $50 payment via PayPal to SCT. I am currently on this page: https://www.sierrachart.com/UserControlPanel.php?page=ServicesActivation
I need to purchase a data package that includes volume data (essential) for the Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500 futures markets. I only need intraday historical data for backtesting—NOT real-time data. I feel disoriented and confused. Could you please tell me exactly which link I should select and pay for? Thanks.

You only need to activate a package. You do not need to activate any exchange options.

As for the packages, if you are not connecting to data or trading services, and you are fine with our Delayed Streaming Data, then you can be on one of the "Base" packages. Refer to the information for the packages at the following link:
Description of Service Packages and Pricing

The instructions to change to a paid package are here:

For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
