3 until 7 all relate to futures and options on futures. These are not relevant to you in case you want to trade stocks and options on stocks. Whether you need 1 and/or 2 depends on the ticker symbols: it depends on which markets you need. Edit: the easiest way to identify what you need is as follows: open TWS and select the stock ticker you want. If it then states that you only have access to delayed data you can click on that text and a "assistant" helps you to identify which market data subscription you need for that symbol.
