Recording continues overnight and over weekends, so your intraday data builds with no holes to patch later.
ACSIL and spreadsheet systems keep executing around the clock, not just while you are at your desk.
Denali data and Teton routing sit on data-center networking a short hop from Aurora, not your home Wi-Fi.
Run Sierra Chart's own Denali data feed and Teton order routing, built in-house on one codebase with no third-party bridge. Options are not supported on Teton; confirm your instruments.
Prefer a third-party rail, or trading a prop-firm account on Rithmic? Sierra Chart connects through Rithmic and CQG here just as well.
Numbers Bars footprint, the DOM, MBO and up to 1400 depth levels per side redraw on every tick. Current-generation single-core speed keeps them smooth through a volatile open.
Detach chart windows across multiple monitors and run large chartbooks, driven over Remote Desktop, with the cores and RAM to match on higher tiers.
Chicago-metro hosting sits a short network hop from CME's Aurora data center. Denali and Teton both benefit from a short, steady path; measure the round-trip yourself.
Redundant power and networking, network-level DDoS mitigation, and a 99.999% uptime target you can check against our public status page.
The all-Sierra stack uses Denali data with Teton routing; prop-firm accounts are often on Rithmic. Setups change, so confirm the current options in Sierra Chart's own documentation.

Sierra Chart's Teton routing holds OCO and bracket orders server-side at the exchange, so none of the above is about rescuing resting orders. It is about keeping the desktop app, your recording and your local automation running.
