Greetings,

I'm looking to ascertain the best real-time data feed for the SPX cash index. I was using $INX but it appears to be delayed. Would an alternative be the symbol SPX500?

SPX500 is an option.

Also, you are setup to get data from the NASDAQ Global Indices, which has the symbol NQUS500LC-NQGI. Refer to the information at the following link for a comparison with SPX:

Okay got it. Thanks John, I believe using the symbol "SPX 500" will be the best option for me. I need the price range to be identical or as close a possible to the SPX Index. I've configured spreadsheet studies for calculating the differential between ES/SPX in order to plot SPX century figures/options strikes on my ES chart. For this I believe SPX500 will be the best option.

Is there any way to get an accurate real-time feed of the SPX cash index? I've built a system through the spreadsheet study to calculate the differential between ES and SPX which I then use in a myriad number of ways such as plotting specific SPX prices on the ES. Unfortunately the SPX feed accessed by the symbol "SPX500" is inaccurate as it is off by roughly 4.5 points at the moment. If the difference between the symbol 'SPX500' and the SPX cash index is static I could put it into the calculation and account for it?

Also, the symbol NQUS500LC-NQGI has totally different prices which renders it unusable for this purpose.

Is there any plan to add this? With the 0-DTE's growing more and more popular it seems to be an imperative to pay very close attention to what is happening in the SPX. And when you say not directly is there another way to get accurate real time SPX cash index data onto a chart in Sierra?

I am also looking for the SPX cash index.

I did not see a reply to the above post, so am curious if there are updates to re-add this feed.

There has not been anything done on this.

The alternative is to see if this data is available from your Trading Service, or you can see if IQ Feed has it. Refer to the following for IQ Feed:
