Why It Exists

I love Sierra Chart. I need orderflow to trade, I don't want to trade a platform I'm not comfortable with. That simple, this was initially designed to solve a problem I faced and I realized others might be having this issue too.

SierraStep does not execute trades on your behalf. Instead, it acts as an intelligent layer on top of Sierra Chart, providing order routing to your TopstepX Account.

Not a Broker, Not a Trading Platform

SierraStep is not a brokerage, trading platform, or financial advisor. It does not interact with funding companies or process evaluations. It simply enhances what the trader is already doing inside their own Sierra Chart environment.

Not Affiliated

SierraStep is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Topstep, Sierra Chart, or any prop firm. It is designed solely for compatibility and workflow assistance.
