Hi I am running ThinkOrSwim and Sierra chart windows side by side. SC is connected to TDA. I am monitoring SPX500 on SC and SPX (assuming they are same) on ToS/ Issue is there is a small difference in the values reported. See attached image. ToS = 2391.51 SC = 2391.12 Diff = 0.39 What is the reason for this discrepancy? Note: I am evaluating SC with 15 day trial but have a funded account with TDA. |

The SPX500 symbol in Sierra Chart is a CFD symbol and will not exactly match the actual S&P 500 cash index. You must use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed for the real S&P 500 cash index: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartRealTimeFuturesStockDataFeed.php#AccessCashIndexMarketData Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Yes of course. We have answered this multiple times. Refer to the instructions here: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartRealTimeFuturesStockDataFeed.php#AccessCashIndexMarketData This is a separate service you have to pay for. In the case of Interactive Brokers you can use the Interactive Brokers symbol and you will find that in File >> Find Symbol>> IB Indexes.

You can use any service package. You just need to follow through the instructions here and pay for and activate the data feed: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartRealTimeFuturesStockDataFeed.php#AccessCashIndexMarketData If you want help with that, then add 25 USD to your account here: https://www.sierrachart.com/UserControlPanel.php?page=AddAccountCredit And let us know when that is done. For options data you need to use Interactive Brokers.
