After reading this, what we will do is also support a paper trading account as well. You will still have to at least once during the same calendar month connect to your live account, otherwise you will not get the data feed.

Thank you for your reply.

This is great news because it is very important for every trader to be able to use both live and paper accounts with the very same conditions (i.e. for testing, practicing, etc.), in this case the same data feed.

Using IB paper account instead of SC Sim account has the advantage to reproduce all the live conditions (Fills, interaction between SC and TWS, IB Trade Logs, etc).

The way you describe you are planing to do now is identical to IQFeed, so I guess you will be able to get the approval to implement it.

I think that what you have to do is to implement an option to allow the user to submit or not the account authentication to the CME data feed account. But I am sure that you will find the best way to do it.

Please let us know on any further developments on this subject.

Thank you very much.
