I have a few SP indices on charts for example $XGBB, $XJDD and $XHBB. They all have M after the tickers which I think means real time. However, it seems they are not real time, the bar charts stop at end of last trading day.

The [M] means that you are getting the data from Sierra Chart, it does not mean the data is in Real-Time.

But, you should be getting the real-time data given that you have the S&P Indices exchange active. Therefore, we need to see your Message Log by following these instructions:

Are these Daily (historical) charts or Intraday charts?

If you change to an Intraday (1 minute, for example) chart, does the data update properly?

Follow the instructions here to update the Symbol Settings:
Global Symbol Settings: Update Global Symbol Settings

That log does not show what we need. Follow the instructions again in post #2. You definitely should be receiving real-time data.
