I'm trying to use Sierra Chart with Stocks - like Apple, Microsoft, IBM etc.
Why is it so hard to setup Sierra Chart with stocks?

Please help.

In order to open a chart for a stock, you just need to type in the stock symbol (like "AAPL" for Apple). Refer to the information in this section:
File Menu: Find Symbol (File)

It does not look like you are subscribed to any Real-Time data for stocks, therefore the data you will receive is our historical data, which is delayed and only updates on a specific interval. Refer to the information here:
Sierra Chart Historical Data Service

If you are interested in getting Real-Time stock data from us, then refer to the information for the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed, and you would activate the U.S. Equities exchange:

Follow the instructions here:

When you open a chart for a stock symbol you need to manually enter the stock symbol. In this case the symbols are:
AAPL
IBM
MSFT
