You need to set Sierra Chart to use the Sierra Chart Historical Data Service by following the instructions here:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartHistoricalData.php#UsingSCHDS

And you need to change the symbols in the charts following the format for that service. You are using the incorrect symbols. Refer to this section here:

Great - works fine now.

BUT I do need real time data too for the following futures:

ES
YM
NQ
TF

Im not sure if I need to purchase just the exchange data, and/or additional package/usage data?

I did try with the ES, but a message popped up saying I needed to first enable one real time connection - can you advise?

Additionally, I have just read on this service you offer: Sierra Chart Real Time and Historical Forex and CFD Data Service.

I am looking simply for the most cost effective way of recieving real-time price feeds for indicies - they do not necessarily need to be futures.

Currently on packages 1 3 5

Do you have a futures trading account? If so, with what broker?


Using the CFD data from the Sierra Chart Real Time and Historical Forex and CFD Data Service is the most cost-effective way if you do not have a futures trading account.

Follow the instructions here:
Sierra Chart Real Time and Historical Forex and CFD Data Service: Setup Instructions

These are the symbols you need to use:
