1. You do need to be on a paid package, as the Trial has limited symbols and data available. But any package will suffice to get the historical data. You do not need to have an active subscription for the real-time data to get the historical data. 2. The statements are both true, although the one referencing 2013 is more generic. We have tick-by-tick data going back to 2011 for most CME Group symbols, but it does depend on the individual symbol. 3. Whether a trade occurred at the Bid or Ask is available with the tick-by-tick data. If you are looking for something else (such as Historical Market Depth data) then that is not available. 4. While on a trial you only have access to certain symbols and a limited amount of data. Refer to the following: Sierra Chart Trial Account 5. No. The historical daily data limit applies to all of the CME Group data. -- You stated that you are wanting the data "for statistical research". We want to point out that the data is only available to be accessed within the Sierra Chart software itself. This is due to restrictions from the exchanges.
