There will be two or three day delay with this. It is not likely we are going to get this out, this Friday. The complication is just due to the large number of symbols that have to be handled from the CME. This is about 200,000 symbols.

The main issue we are working on now related to futures options is managing the very large number of symbols. The additional symbols and bandwidth is causing some packet loss issues with our main CME and other exchange feeds. This has been an issue the last couple of days. When there is packet loss, we are ensuring at the end of the and periodically throughout the day the historical data is complete. We will have this issue resolved by the end of the day.

Is real time option price data available and if so, where do I find the $12 charge to enable the data?

Yes, this is just about ready. We finished the details of this over this past weekend. So you are interested in real-time CME futures options data? It is more than just 12 USD a month. You also have to pay for the real-time data connection and the CME exchange fee. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

We have completed most of the work for releasing Futures options. We just need to add the necessary symbol settings. The symbol settings for the ES futures options are now available. Users will need to update to version 1617. Any user of the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed can now access futures options through File >> Find Symbol >>Futures Options-CME/CBOT/COMEX/NYMEX. Select the symbol, currently only ES, and press Get Options. More than 10,000 options will be listed. We are going to improve upon the way in which options will be listed so there is not a temporary freezing while processing through that many options. Thinking about this some more, what we could do is perhaps list only options which have some trading activity because most of these options are just not active. Update: For the time being, there is no additional cost for the real-time options until we get of the remaining details finalized.

The development of futures options for the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed is now complete. This was a technical challenge with having to make various optimizations to handle over 242,000 symbols. These optimizations were done within Sierra Chart, which processes the feed, and also within our real-time server program. The symbols can be searched through: File >> Find Symbol >>Futures Options-CME/CBOT/COMEX/NYMEX. Select one of the underlying symbols in the list and press the Get Options button. Only those symbols that have a nonzero open interest are returned for performance and practical reasons. And the open interest is within the description of the symbol in the returned list. You can see the open interest after "OI=". Make sure you are on the current version of Sierra Chart for proper support for futures options.

What we are also going to be adding in the coming days is recording of the bid and ask prices. So when there is no trading activity but there is changes with bid and ask prices, you will be able to chart those as well as an option.

This is intended to be released this Sunday evening: What we are also going to be adding in the coming days is recording of the bid and ask prices. So when there is no trading activity but there is changes with bid and ask prices, you will be able to chart those as well as an option.
The option to either chart these or not will be in the next release. By default they will be charted, including in existing versions.

"The symbols can be searched through: File >> Find Symbol >>Futures Options-CME/CBOT/COMEX/NYMEX. Select one of the underlying symbols in the list and press the Get Options button." When I do this, I don't get options...it does nothing. I'm using Sierra Chart with AMP Futures. AMP tells me that my account is optimized for options, and it has to be an issue with Sierra. I entered a trouble ticket and got no response. How can I get options???? Please help!! |

Also, we have moved the options service over to a separate server so as to not put any extra load on the server handling outright futures and stocks. This requires that you are running the current Sierra Chart version to access that server.

Hi. I have a paper trading data feed from Rithmic atm. Would this service be comparable to that? Is it realtime?

Hi. How many futures options symbols can be watched simultaneously ?
|
| [2017-12-04 18:04:30] |
| |
|
It depends upon the number of symbols you have subscribed to for the data feed. Refer to: Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed: Data Feed Pricing It is that same number of symbols. These symbols being monitored in real time do not count against other security types like futures, spreads, indexes and stocks. There is also going to be a 10 USD/month required for futures options but this is not yet in place. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

It depends upon the number of symbols you have subscribed to for the data feed. Refer to:
Does this mean every strike per market is considered to be a symbol ? (This means watching the available set of strikes of just one market can lead to hundreds of symbols...). -- W |
