I am interested in getting Sierra Chart because I am want to learn how to trade using market profile and order flow/footprint analysis. Sierra Chart seems to offer the best capabilities here at a reasonable monthly price. I am happy to paper trade and/or just observe for awhile, so I do not need to place trades for the time being.

Is there any recommendation as to how I can do this without having to pay for additional data feeds, or if not, what is the most basic option available? I am happy with equities only at this point, but I plan to eventually trade futures. I currently have an account with TD Ameritrade. I read somewhere that it was somewhat (poorly) compatible with Sierra Chart, but I don't see it as a listed broker option.

Any help would be appreciated!

The best option is to use Sierra Chart Package 5, which includes delayed streaming data from the CME Group of exchanges. Therefore, this would only cost you $36.00 USD per month, or less if you purchase multiple months at a time. You can set your package selection on this page (you will need to login with your Sierra Chart Username and Password):
https://www.sierrachart.com/UserControlPanel.php?page=ServicesActivation

For more information, refer to the information here for the packages:
Description of Service Packages and Pricing: Packages

And refer to the information here on the delayed streaming data:
Delayed Exchange Data Feed

And finally, refer to the information here on Simulation Mode:
