Hi,
When setting up my footprint, it looks like the volume for the ask x bid volume is incorrect. At the cash open, each side is below 100 for the S&P 500. I would think most rows would be in the hundreds minimally. Do I have the wrong setting? This is a free trial.

You are most likely looking at the CFD data coming from FXCM. Your chart is presumably in US Pacific time. If you want the actual SPX volume you need to subscribe to the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed (not the Denali feed) and add CBOE data. Do you really want to be tracking SPX as a cash index or actually the ES futures?

Yes this is the SPX 500 symbol from CFD and I am in US Pacific time. I would like to track the actual ES Futures. Is that another symbol?

Oh I believe I found it! Just to confirm, is it ESH22-CME?
