Using Interactive brokers , below is the format specified on the sierra website to use. However this doesn't seem to work. Is there any other way to do this. Can I trade options from Sierra for IB? Can I trade futures options from IB as well.
SPY-OPT-20160422-208-C-SMART-100-USD

If this works, am willing to extend sierra service, if not this could be deal breaker
