We do realize that this is complicated, but this is due to the rules of the CME Group.

In particular, their rule that in order to qualify for the Non-Professional exchange fees you need to have a funded futures trading account. In order to verify this, we ask that you connect your Sierra Chart software to that trading account at least once a month. You will find more information on this here:

If you are not able to setup an account with a broker, then you would need to pay the Professional exchange fees, which would be the following exchange fees:
- CME E-mini, For professionals and users without a trading account: $62.40
- NYMEX, For professionals and users without a trading account: $109.20
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
