After a summer break, struggling a little with reminding myself of how your data services work.

My interest is CME Nymex CL Crude Oil futures and I use TWS.

1) Is the historical CL futures data from 'Sierra Chart Historical Data' the same as the historical CL futures data from 'Sierra Chart Real Time and Historical Data Feed'?

2) If using 'Sierra Chart Real Time and Historical Data Feed' and connected to the TWS, does that mean that Sierra Chart then only ever gets data from 'Sierra Chart Real Time and Historical Data Feed' and the TWS is then just a trading platform (Sierra Chart gets no data from the TWS)?

3) Is the point of using the 'Sierra Chart Real Time and Historical Data Feed' rather than the direct TWS feed that...

a)its then possible to get the historical data without the downloading pain of getting it from TWS?
b)the real time data is more accurate as it does not have the TWS data filtering?

Thank you
