I know that you can place trades directly on Sierra Charts, but majority of users from what I’ve seen trade Futures.

I only trade SPY options and wanted to know if there’s a broker that would allow me to place options trades on Sierra Charts.

I was looking into Interactive Brokers, but wanted to confirm to see if this was possible. I only see futures.

Yes you can use Interactive Brokers but trading options is more difficult because the options symbology from Interactive Brokers is somewhat complicated.

Are there any other brokers that would be recommended for placing options trades for US equities directly on the chart?

Interactive Brokers is the only brokerage that we have support for that offers stock trading. So that is the only option.
