Hello, I would like to use SC for just charting stocks. No need for trade execution. Wondering if this is possible. If so can you advise on what's the best way to do so? I primarily trade small cap. Is this something that would be cumbersome to do? Meaning having to import symbols everyday, just more of a hassle to do on a daily. thank you

There is nothing too special you have to do for this. If you are OK with 15 minute delayed data, then there is nothing you need to do. You can access this data as you are setup now. Just open the "File >> Find Symbol" window and enter the ticker symbol of the stock you want to open a chart for. If you want real-time data, then you need to be on one of the "Integrated" packages and you need to setup and pay for the real-time data for the U.S. Equities Consolidated Tape exchange. Refer to the following for the different Integrated packages so you can determine which one you would need: Description of Service Packages and Pricing: Integrated Packages Then follow these instructions to change your package: Sierra Chart Purchase and License Information: Changing Package And finally, follow these instructions to setup and pay for the U.S. Equities Consolidated Tape exchange: Denali Exchange Data Feed: Setup Instructions: All Other Exchanges For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing

Ok, seems simple enough but would I have to add each ticker one by one or is there anyway to add them all? thank you

It depends on what you want to do. If you want to open separate charts for each one, then you would need to enter each ticker and open a chart for it. If you want to open a single chart and then change the symbol for that chart based on a list, you would use the Associated Watch List and then you can load that from a file, or there are preset options to load all of the symbols for a particular exchange (such as NASDAQ or NYSE). Refer to the following: Changing the Symbol of a Chart: Using the Associated Watch List For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing
