Post From: Question about Volume Profile + Large Trade Detection for CME Futures

Hello Sierra Chart Support,
I'm interested in using Sierra Chart for trading CME futures (E-mini NQ and ES) and have a few questions about platform capabilities and pricing.
What I need:

Volume Profile tools (POC, Value Area, HVN/LVN)
Large trade detection or block trade indicators
Real-time data for CME futures

My questions:

Does Sierra Chart support these features natively, or do I need additional add-ons?
What subscription plan would I need? (I saw the ~$36/month package mentioned)
For CME futures data - what's the most affordable data feed option that works with Sierra Chart? I understand Denali is one option, but what would be the total monthly cost (platform + data)?
Is there a trial period available so I can test the platform before committing?

I'm working with a limited budget and want to make sure I'm choosing the most cost-effective setup for my needs. Any guidance on the best combination of services would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and assistance.
Best regards,
DB
