The level 2 data for stocks through TD Ameritrade is available, but it is not supported. It previously was supported but TD Ameritrade made some changes and disabled the particular level 2 data that Sierra Chart was using but there is a different format that could be used.

Regarding market depth data for stocks, have you considered using Interactive Brokers instead?

Refer to:

We are still waiting for an answer from Interactive Brokers about level 2 data for stocks through their API.

I notice no commission fees are applied to simulated trades. Did I miss it somewhere in the settings or documentation, or is it just not available?
Commissions are supported through the Trade Activity Log. Refer to:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/TradeActivityLog.php

You need to use the Use Commission setting.
