Hi guys,

I'm new to trading and have decided to go with Sierra Charts for my platform, however I need some guidance with picking a broker/data provider thats right for what I'd like to do. One of the reasons I chose Sierra is because of Market Profile capabilities, so that is one thing I plan on implementing into my trading. The other thing I'd like to be able to do is trade futures, stocks and forex (and also CFDs if possible but not required) from one broker. So far the only broker I found that can provide all this is Interactive Brokers. If I went with IB alone would I be able to get Market Profile data with them or does it not matter? Another option I'm considering is signing up with Infinity Futures because I'd get Sierra Charts free - trading futures there and also getting an account with IB for stocks & forex. The confusing part is if I did this would I need IQfeed to setup Sierra Charts with IB? Keep in mind I would like to do all my actual trading off of Sierra Charts.

Any advice and possible solutions would be much appreciated.

Thank you

I assume you looked at what Sierra can offer in terms of data - they do have some nice data packages on their own.
