Post From: two SC copies

..ok getting there, but still some conflict. The progress I made I got to 2 copies of SCs working with what appeared to be: [1] Server instance of Sierra Chart, and [original copy on virtual desktop 1] [2] another instance of Sierra Chart [second copy on virtual desktop 2] Both SC copies if opened separately appeared to be reading from it's own Data folder. However with both instances open and accessing the same Chartbook they somehow appeared to be access the same file. I could tell there was a problem when I opened the same Chartbook in both the original and second SC copy the program was very slow. Also if I made changes in one and saved, the changes occurred in the second. Therefore they seemed to be sharing data folders. What I want is multiple copies of SCs all operating their own data independently, yet sharing the same data feed and trading abilities. Can you please identify where I am going wrong and what I need to do to get this result? Admittedly I was a bit confused as to what you meant by: In your case, you do not want to use the File >> New Instance command. In the image you provided, the particular instance of Sierra Chart you are running is considered the client instance. And therefore do not enable the DTC Protocol Server in that instance. It must be disabled. To me that seems to imply I use neither option. Very sorry to get confused and have to have all the spelt out and I appreciate your help. Thanks and Rgds, Mark |
