Post From: New remote chart feature via DTC: data works, trading not

I refer to your thread about remote charts and your answer to my question there about trading a mapped symbol:
Breaking Change: Remote Chart Data Files | Post: 164023

I can access market data but I can't trade the mapped symbol.

I use two instances. SC1 (CQG) and SC2 (LMAX). I am mapping an CQG symbol to SC2 (LMAX). On SC2 (LMAX) I can access this symbol and its market data. But the trading window on SC2 (LMAX) only lists the LMAX account which makes sense, and I cannot trade a CQG symbol through an LMAX account.

I know that trading SC1 (CQG) through SC2 (LMAX) would be possible if on SC2 (LMAX) I changed "Data/Trade Service Settings" from "DTC Subinstance". But then I could only trade CQG symbols on that instance and no longer any LMAX symbols.

So if it is possible for me to trade the mapped symbol with CQG and all other symbols with LMAX in one single instance via symbol settings, then please tell me how.

These are my symbol settings I used in SC2 (LMAX):
<settings>
<symbol>F.US.GCEZ18</symbol>
