So I want to do live trading and for that reason I think I need live real-time data. So I understood I need to create an account with a broker and then use their data or your data. According my friends connection (ESH22-CME), we understood that he is still connected to CQG service (in this case amp global) but since he is paying sierra fees monthly, he must be getting data directly from you guys right?
It sounds like this is the case (that your friend is getting Sierra Chart and data from the Denali Exchange Data Feed) given what you stated he pays per month. He is then using AMP as his broker and they have him setup to use CQG for the order routing. Regarding the template, when it was first sent to me, the file name ended in .cht. I went on youtube and watched instructions on how to add templates onto sierra chart and saw that the filenames ended in .StdyCollct so I changed it, added it to sierra data folder in C drive, then went on sierra "Analysis" tab and tried to implement it via there but it doesn't work saying "This study requires a newer version of Sierra Chart or is no longer compatible". Does the issue lay in me changing the name from .cht to .StdyCollct?
Yes, absolutely. You should not have changed the file extension. Change it back to .cht and then open it as a Chartbook by selecting File >> Open Chartbook. Refer to the following information: File Menu: Open Chartbook (File) Once the chartbook is opened, you will have a collection of charts that make up that Chartbook. You will first need to change the symbols by selecting Edit >> Translate Symbols to Current Service after which your charts should start to fill in with data. Let us know if you have any issues after that. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
