Hello, how do I know if i'm getting BTC real time value? I pay for data subscription it isn't easy to tell because they are both package into a realtime/delayed tab. Also, does Sierr accept Options Flow feeds? How? I want to pull Flow data for scalping.

What BTC data are you specifically looking for?

You are setup to get data for the CME Group, and they have BTC Futures, so you are able to get this data in real-time.

And we have real-time data for the following Crypto exchanges, which have trading for BTC:
- Binance
- Bitfinex
- Deribit

Additionally, if you are using Interactive Brokers, then they also have some crypto trading, so they would have their own data for this.

Awesome! Appreciated. That sounds good because I'm looking to trade BTC and other cryptos Futures via Ironbeam. I also want to trade Spot. What about the Option Flow? Any particular provider that work well with Sierra. I want to import flow data in real time.

I’m referring to equity options and SPX. For instance, getting a flow data like gamma exposure and the likes.

Sierra Chart does not have Options data for equities. Only for the CME Group and EUREX.

Also, the software does not have an Options Chain display or any calculations for the Greeks for options.

Understood. Appreciate the quick response again. What about if I sign to an Options Flow provider like SpotGamma, CheddarFlow, etc. Are there APIs I can use to move that data into my charts or strategy?

We do not have connectivity with them specifically.

If they want to send the data using DTC, then it can be brought in this way. Refer to the following:
DTC Protocol

Otherwise, you would have to create your own interface. You can use DTC, or create something yourself. Refer to the following:
Intraday Data File Format
