Not sure what an "option chain strike chart" is.

Sierra Chart does provide data for CME group exchange futures options. However, not for equity options. For information about futures options, refer to:

Is there any plan for option tables? Any plans for Equity options?

Longer term but this would not be coming until later next year at the soonest.

Also interested in knowing. Now that you guys have full volume from the NYSE/NASDAQ SIPs, I'm seriously considering switching over. But I need implied volatility data at minimum to leave ThinkorSwim (completely different from the volatility study available. One is based upon backing out the value from the bid,ask or mid and bjerksund-stensland model or binomial/trinomial models while the other measures realize volatility as far as I could see from a quick read. Implied volatility is more of a prediction based of future volatility) and equity options data. In particular access to the options chains.

Either the way, congrats on getting the new full US equity data feed setup!

Edit: here's a link that describes implied volatility as well as the ideal ways to calculate it far better than I ever could: https://quant.stackexchange.com/questions/1489/how-should-i-calculate-the-implied-volatility-of-an-american-option-in-a-real-ti
