I am a newbie trying out sierra with Interactive brokers(with whom I have an account). I could not find this question answered here in the forum.
So, can I use Sierra historical data connection in parallel with IB connection & set it up so that I would get all the data, say before 9/8/2013 from sierra & current days data from IB & place my orders to IB. This way I avoid getting another data feed.
If not are there any brokers who provide free data(DTN,Zenfire...)
I apologize if the questions are too basic, I am just getting started in futures.

When it comes to historical Intraday data which is up-to-date to the real-time, you are not going to find a free source. It does not exist.

The answer to your question is explained in this section here:

We do plan to be offering our own futures data feed in about a month from now. This be fully integrated with Interactive Brokers and replace that data feed completely for futures. The price of this will be 35 per month.

Is this going to be a tick by tick data feed?
