I can't seem to load real-time data for ES. Have package 12 with CME data activated? Do I need to login with my futures (ninjatrader) account before it will allow real-time?

Yes, this is precisely the issue. You have activated a Non-Professional exchange, but you have not connected your Sierra Chart system to your live, funded, trading account in order to validate the account for the non-professional status. Refer to the following for more information and instructions on how to connect to your live account once a month:

Is this possible or supported with Ninjatrader as my current live, funded, trading account?

If you are setup to use CQG for your order routing with NinjaTrader, then this will work. You would go through the Setup Instructions at the following link to make the connection:

John, would this connection thru CQG allow a NinjaTrader customer to use Sierra Chart to trade from the charts?
