Hello,

I activated EUREX RT Data Feed. No RT feed seems to be available, it seems that SC tries to load data from my broker (IB)
not from SC.

Which Symbols do I have to use if I want to display tha data the DAX future and the Mini Dax future via SC data feed ?
How can I choose the different contracts in SC, e.g. september / december / continuous contracts etc.
What do I have to do if I want to send orders from SC to IB for these contracts ?

You just need to update to the current version of Sierra Chart by following the instructions here:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/download.php#FastUpdate


These are the symbols you need to use in File >> Find Symbol:
DAX-201603-DTB-EUR-25
DAX-201603-DTB-EUR-5


You can chart and trade using these symbols. And the data will come from the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed.

When I enter the symbols into an existing Chart [R] that also receives data from other symbols via SC remote instance, nothing happens. If I use Find-Symbol, go to my Brokers instance (noch SC) and select the data I see a chart marked with [M]. How do I know if I see data from my broker or from SC ?

[M] means the data is coming from the Sierra Chart data feed.

You either need to use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed from one instance of Sierra Chart or activate additional real-time data connections. This is explained here:

Are there any limitations for the Mini-Dax regarding the backfill of data (DAX-201603-DTB-EUR-5) ?
For the *-EUR-25 contract I get much more data compared to the Mini-Version (same expiration data).

Or ist there is also a Continuous version available (i.e. independent from the expiration date) ?

The mini DAX futures contract only started trading about a month ago. So that is about all the historical data that is available.

The Continuous Futures Contract feature does work with that symbol.
