Dear Sierra,

I just subscribed to your S&P Indices data feed with the intention to chart $SPX. It did not work. Sierrachart fail to load the data. Log as follows:

HD Request # 28 - Downloading Historical Daily chart data for $SPX. Starting date: 1964-07-26. Service: ib | 2014-07-26 22:52:42
HD Request # 28 - Requesting 365 days of historical Daily data for $SPX with end date 2014-07-27 | 2014-07-26 22:52:42
Message from IB: No security definition has been found for the request. IB Error Code: 200. Request ID: 53. | 2014-07-26 22:52:43
HD Request # 28 - Error downloading historical Daily data for $SPX. The symbol is unknown to the server. | 2014-07-26 22:52:43
HD Request # 28 - Received 0 records from 00:00:00 to 00:00:00 (0.0 seconds) and wrote 0 records for $SPX | 2014-07-26 22:52:43
HD Request # 28 - Daily download COMPLETE for $SPX | 2014-07-26 22:52:43

I then downloaded $INX, that worked.

Questions:
. why did $SPX not work?
. can it be I already had access to $INX via the CBOE Indices data feed?
. if yes, I would like to cancel the S&P Indices data feed - I subscribed 15 minutes ago - could you issue a refund?

Thank you.
