What is the easiest/cheapest way to set up an account so that I can Sim trade the S&P Emini?
I have an Sierra account - 20 symbols - set up at this time and need to know what step to take next.
Thank you.

Did you require real-time data for this market? Would delayed data be fine. Real-time data is more expensive if you do not have a funded trading account.

Can I sim trade off of a delayed data feed, and how delayed is it?

Will I be able to see order flow bids and asks will the Dome still light up with contracts? Will I be able to use contract bars charts?

Thinking about this some more, you really would need to use the streaming real-time data feed to meet your requirements. If you do not have a funded trading account, the cost is 25 USD per month for the real-time connection + 42 USD per month for the CME exchange fee in addition to the cost of Sierra Chart.

If you have a funded trading account the 42 USD exchange fee then becomes 5.25 USD per month.

Here is the documentation for the data feed:

Ok. Following up. I will be choosing a Funded trading account, per my instructors recommendation, and then connect with Sierra that way.
