At the moment we have two different data feeds for US Stocks. They each have tradeoffs, which is why we still have them both. They are the following: - Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed with U.S. Equities exchange. This uses the standard equities symbols (such as TSLA) and has the full consolidated tape information for the volume. But this data does not have market depth data. - Denali Exchange Data Feed with NASDAQ TotalView exchange. This uses the modified equities symbol with the -NQTV (such as TSLA-NQTV). This data does not have the consolidated tape, so it is only the volume from the NASDAQ that is shown. But it does have the Market Depth data. Therefore, which one you use depends on what you need. Offhand, if you are using TPOs primarily, and you do not need the Market Depth, then you should use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed. Note that we are working on getting the consolidated tape for the Denali data feed, but it is still being worked on. When we do have it, then we will switch everyone to the Denali Exchange Data Feed. To setup the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed, follow the instructions at the following link: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartRealTimeFuturesStockDataFeed.php#SetupInstructions For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
