Post From: Upcoming Data Feed Plans 2, New Exchange

We are currently underway with the programming to support the CBOE Futures and NASDAQ data feeds. We hope to have CBOE futures out in March 2021 and NASDAQ in April 2021.

CBOE Futures is relatively simple for us. NASDAQ will be more involved. So we just have to see how that goes. Maybe we will start with just level 1 data for now and try to get that done by April.

This will also mean, that we will have very few users continuing to use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed by the end of 2021 and the remaining exchanges may just get phased out by us and we may just remove that data feed. The soonest though this would happen would be December 2021 we forecast. We just want to let users know.

For example on ICE we just have 7 users. The other exchanges that have significant number of users are US Equities and HKFE. The US equities users will move to our new NASDAQ feed and if necessary we can then add NYSE as well although you will have access to the NYSE stocks anyway through the NASDAQ feed.

Regarding HKFE we will make a decision later in the year as to what to do with those users. And with ICE we just have so few users. So we recommend you get your ICE data from IQ Feed or CQG. There is no need to do anything now though. You can continue to get the ICE data from the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed until the end of the year.

Please understand that we must focus our efforts, where there is the most demand and do a good job with those services. We cannot be everything to everybody and supporting exchanges where there are just one user or a few users. This makes no sense.

We really do not foresee continuing with the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed beyond 2021. At this point, this is just a consideration and is not definite. It is very possible it continues beyond the end of 2021.

Update:
At this point it is almost certain, that the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed will not continue after 2021 and we will have replacement data feeds, for the most actively used exchanges on that data feed before then.

Update 2021-08-07:
We will be keeping the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed after 2021 and beyond, so there are no plans to discontinue it.
