Hi,

I am a new user here, and I have a few questions about using Rithmic Trader Pro with Sierra Chart.

If I am only paper trading, do I still need a brokerage account connected to Sierra Chart? Or can I use Sierra Chart with Rithmic Trader Pro only, without a broker?

If it does work without a broker, and I purchase the appropriate Sierra Chart package (such as Level 10 or above), will I receive real-time live market data? Or will the data be delayed unless I have an active broker account?

I read that live data may not be available when using Rithmic Trader Pro with Sierra Chart without a broker, since Rithmic is a data/technology provider and not a broker. Could you please confirm if this is correct?

I just want to clearly understand the setup requirements before proceeding.

Thank you.
