S&P Indices with SC real time exchange data feed

So when I subscribe to S&P indexes, I can get $SRHC, $SRFI, $SRIN, $SRIT (health care, financials, industrials, technology).
What about $SRCD, $SRCS, $SREN, $SRMA, $SRTS, $SRUT? (cons discretionary, cons staples, energy, materials, telecom, utilities)?

The $IX~ indexes are basically identical and so they will work fine, but my question is more generally: are all the barchart S&P indexes not available in SC? And are all the symbols available in SC those that are shown in the "Find Symbol" box, or are there others which are available but not shown here?

I do not see a biotechnology index, which would seem to be an essential component of any index offering, given the importance demonstrated in the industry in May 2014 to the broad market. I tried: $U7DB, $DSBT, $NBI, $SSPB, and none of those work.

Not all of the index symbols are listed but we can add them and we will add these:
$SRCD, $SRCS, $SREN, $SRMA, $SRTS, $SRUT, $U7DB, $DSBT, $NBI, $SSPB,

If you do not see a symbol listed it means we have to add it and you will not be able to access it otherwise. So let us know what other symbols you need.

A quick question -- do I have to upgrade to a new SC release to see these new symbols, or are they done on your end so that old versions can use them too?

You do not need to update. You only need to restart Sierra Chart.

I tried to access $NBI, and I am getting daily bars but no intraday data, FYI.

Sorry for the additional message, but I checked a couple others in the list above ($SRCD, etc) and they also only have daily data, not intraday data, whereas all the ones in the built-in list in SC (from 'find symbol') do have intraday data already.

This is now all done.

Restart Sierra Chart to see the symbols.
