Post From: server side bracket order capability; e-minis

I apologize for bringing up this topic yet again - there's been so much discussed here - but I'm struggling to put the pieces together.
I intend to trade e-mini Index futures. Server side bracket order capability is key to my trading style and peace of mind.
I also want reliable communication and transaction management.
I was exploring CTS, but I've learned that Tick data is only available through their "Advanced Data & Charting" service, which at $200/month minimum is beyond what I think I should have to pay.
My thought at this point is to subscribe to their "Core+Charting" product (which is a "1 minute resolution and above" feed, and I assume the one referenced in the SC write-up) - so that I have access to the CTS order entry/management platform - and continue my subscription to the SC RT data feed so that I have access to Tick data. Is this the method implicit in SC's "Integration with Trading Services"?
Any one else require bracket orders and Tick data? What is your approach and experience? Thank you.
