How to Post a Message for Support

Post From: SC Real-time & Historical Exchange Data Feed: Delay & Update?

I have poured over the "Sierra Chart Real-Time and Historical Exchange Data Feed" webpage for hours, particularly sections "What Is Included" and "Notes", to understand under what conditions the tick-by-tick data is delayed/not delayed and streaming/not streaming. There are apparently six conditions for non-CME data, depending on whether a supported Trading Service or the SC Exchange Data Service is used, whether the supported Trading Service is connected or not connected, and whether the exchange fee has been paid or not paid. There are another six conditions for CME Group Exchanges - similar with a couple of exceptions, the main one being that the SC Exchange Data Service isn't viable due to the exorbitantly high exchange fees. Please find attached a spreadsheet showing the various conditions and my best determination of whether the data is delayed and whether it is streaming. There are six cells with question marks indicating I could not determine whether the data was streaming or not. Please answer the questions. In addition, please correct any other misunderstandings. Assumptions for the analysis: - A funded futures trading account. - A supported Trading Service. - The Sierra Chart Real-time and Historical Exchange Data Feed is activated. - Data/Trade Service Settings » Allow Support for Sierra Chart Data Feeds is checked. When an intraday chart is opened, what type of data is received? Delayed/not delayed? Streaming/not streaming? Thank you.
