Hi, I am looking to activate Sierra Exchange Data Feed for the full CME Group and I have a funded account with Interactive Brokers. Your website quite often cites technical problems in integration with IB. I am wondering if the problems mainly occur due to the IB data system/software not fully compatible with Sierra or IB data feed itself being inferior (delayed or spotty real-time data)? I am happy to trade separately on the IB TWS to avoid most connection/technical problems and purchase CME futures data from Sierra but my main concern is if the real-time data itself from these two sources match? i.e. would i expect to see different prices pretty often at the same instance from these two sources? Thanks a lot for your help, Elaine
