Please, clarify this:

1117 Release Date: 2014-04-07
This version support CQG market data when using the CQG Trading service. Historical data is available for futures contracts for users of Sierra Chart service package 3 and 5, but is delayed 10 minutes, unless you are using the Sierra Chart Real-Time and Historical Exchange Data Feed.

I need to switch my trading service to either Rithmic or CQG. I see that Rithmic don't provide historical intraday tick data, but I need the ticks.
( https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/Rithmic.php )

How do CQG market data work? If I get SC + CQG from my broker will I have historical data from CQG?

Is the "Historical data" intraday tick data?

Does "Historical data [...] delayed 10 minutes" mean that I'll have a gap between my chart and the trading service (both CQG)?

Or the trading service provides (real-time tick) data but it takes 10 minutes until the historical data can catch up (fill the gap) with the trading service?

Sorry for the many question I just try to describe what I don't understand.

Thank you
