Hello Sierra Chart Support,

I am an individual trader using Sierra Chart together with my ICMarkets account strictly for my own personal trading and chart analysis.

I do not hold any professional trading license or registration, I am not employed by a financial institution, and I do not use market data for any business or institutional purposes.

Could you please review my account and reclassify it as Non-Professional under CME market data policy?

Thank you very much for your assistance.

Best regards,
Gazmend Imeri

To start with, the last time you filled out the agreements for the CME Group, you specified yourself as a "Professional". This is why you are tagged as a Professional at this time.

To change your status, you need to redo the agreements at the following link:

But, keep in mind that in order to be considered a Non-Professional for the CME Group, you need to have a live, funded, futures trading account. And you need to connect your Sierra Chart software to that account for verification at least once a month. Refer to the following:
Denali Exchange Data Feed: Understanding and Accessing Data From the CME, CBOT, NYMEX, COMEX Exchanges

Also, we do not have connectivity with ICMarkets. And they appear to be a FOREX and CFD broker, so even if we did connect, you would not be able to verify your non-professional standing with them, as they do not trade the CME Group.
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
