Hi Guys, I really need your help on this one. I have trading account with IB and for the past 10y. had been trading the following futures ( YM, ZN, #A, $C) and nothing else. Recently they canceled their Value Bundle and I decided to try something new. From Sierra chart side: I activated Real-Time market data feed $25 for 10 symbols and also CME NP for $3.25 monthly. But I also had to buy market data from IB. From IB side: Activated CBOT real time- $1.25 and CME real time -$1.25. So the Question is: Is there a difference b/w both data packages? Am i being rip-off by CME Group? Or is IB data not as reliable ( Real time CME- $1.25; CBOT real time- $1.25)? Why I have a strange feeling that I am paying twice for the same data. By the way I love your software Sierra charts. Its the best and miles ahead of the rest. thanks you |

Yes, you are paying the exchange fees twice because the CME has illogical rules. But most exchanges do anyway. You are much better off with the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed rather than using the Interactive Brokers data feed. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Why I am better off with Sierra data feed compared to IB data feed. In both instances data feed comes from the same exchanges- CBOT Real-Time and CME Real-Time. Would someone be able to elaborate on this puzzle, please? Thanks for your time. |
