1. There is not another way to satisfy the CME Group requirement for the non-professional data. You need to have a live, funded, futures trading account to which you can connect your Sierra Chart software. This is a requirement from the CME Group. 2. Any broker that Sierra Chart can work with could be used. Sierra Chart has support for Interactive Brokers as well as brokers that support the use of Rithmic, CQG, and Teton for their order routing. Note that not all brokers that use CQG have support for Sierra Chart, so you would need to check on this specifically with the broker. 3. The only other option is to pay the professional rates. But, if you do not have a brokerage account and are not trading, then why do you need the real-time data? You have access to our Delayed Streaming data for the CME Group that acts just like real-time data, only is 10 minutes and 10 seconds behind the real-time data. This data is free of charge with any package. Refer to the following: Delayed Exchange Data Feed For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
