Sorry to go through this but I need to get this clear in my head.

Assuming i have an account with one of the listed trading providers, they will stream me al the live data i need but the history is limited. I can use the Sierra chart historical server for that.

I'm trying to see why I need the real-time exchange service that SC offers?

what will i be getting i dont get from the AMP/CQG feed and the historical SC servers?

im happy to flip over and pay but im trying to work out the benefit

For many of the supported trading services, the history is not limited because it is provided by Sierra Chart Historical Data services.

There are small advantages. More reliable data feed. No missing data but that is something you probably would not notice anyway because the data loss is going to be small. Historical data for expired futures contracts is tick by tick.
