The Real-Time data for stocks is not something that comes with the Sierra Chart package, you would need to pay for the data. You should be able to get the data from Interactive Brokers, just make sure you have gone through the Setup Instructions to connect to IB. The instructions are at the following link:
Interactive Brokers Trading Service: Setup Instructions

Also, you would need to ensure that you are setup to get the real-time data from IB as well.

If you would rather get the data from us, then you would need to use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed and enable the U.S. Equities exchange. Just note that our data feed does not include the Level 2 market depth data. We are working on a new equities data feed that will include this data, but it is not quite ready yet. You will find the instructions for our current offering at the following link:
