API Limitation/Work Around

View Count: 231

Hello Team,

I am using a platform named MenthorQ for integrating Gamma levels on sierrachart using API.

Upon doing so, I receive an error in sierra that says "API Error - 0" although API key and every other detail being correct.

Is this a limitation in sierrachart that it actively blocks and restricts DLL-based API components?

And is there a work around?

There is nothing in Sierra Chart that would block whatever MethorQ is doing. You need to ask them about this as it is their issue.
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:

But this article from sierrachart says otherwise.

Sierra Chart Does not Support External Service API Components

That link you posted is about Sierra Chart not developing connections to Data/Trading services that use APIs and has nothing to do with whatever MenthorQ is doing.

You need to ask MenthorQ for help with this, as it is their software and their error.
