Hi there,
What brokerage firms do you work with in Canada (I know IB, for example). I am wondering if I can use Sierra Chart to day trade the Canadian stocks in CAD$? If so, what brokers? and what is the procedure? Thanks in advance!

The only choice will be Interactive Brokers.

Thanks for the prompt response. I have already have access to Sierra chart through another broker. Please let me know how I can get access to the Canadian stocks? What is the procedure and fee, if any?

Thanks. It means the user should pay for platform (24$), data feed (35$) and TSX exchange fee (38$). right?
As a IB client, I will have access to their platform (TWS) and data? Can we link the TWS data to the sierra chart? In other world, if it is possible to pay for the Sierra platform only and use the data from the IB's platform?

You will only need to pay for Sierra Chart at 24 USD a month before discount. Pricing can be found here:
Description of Service Packages and Pricing

You can use the Interactive Brokers market data. You do not need to use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed. The suggestion to use that data feed was only in the case where you did not want to open an Interactive Brokers account in case you do not already have it.

Hello,
IB is my broker and I subscribe to Canadian Data with them but I can't seem to get the charts to appear on Siera.
Am I missing something.
Thanks in advance.
