is it fine if I simply take the chart data files from the main Sierra instance and copy paste them into the second instance's data folder. Yes you can do this but if this additional instance is started through File >> New Instance the data comes from the main instance anyway. And Sierra Chart probably would transfer the data faster as compared with a file copy through the operating system or at least more gracefully.
