Post From: SC Data Feed + Normal Data Feed ?

I have the SC Datafeed running for Forex and so far it looks great. Now I am trying to understand how things are set up under the hood. Please see attachment Sierra18. The [M] should denote the Mapping of a feed. But here I see two of them, while I expected the broker part (it is that, right ?) to have no [M] denoted. In an earlier post you said something along the lines of "the data feed will be real time and the price you will see will be of the Broker itself". OK, ... see attached Sierra17 ... The green arrow is at the close (I suppose, I didn't really investigate) but is quite a bit off compared to the real buying price (1.14605), indicated by the green line (which is from SC) as well as the TWS log (never mind it is Paper). Now what are we dealing with here ? It very well could be about your text I just quoted, but then what to do with it, or how to deal with such a situation ? So what I am trying to grasp is how this will reflect automated trading (via ACSIL) and how I myself must trigger a price which next readily makes a loss as if it were dealing with a spread. SC will report that I bought at 1.14605 (let's hope it does ;-) but meanwhile my math will tell me a readily loss of 0.00025 (times QTY) and all will be confused. This behavior did not show at all with the IB feed. And to be sure it is not that : is that second [M] even correct ? I did not expect that ... Thank you once again for your valued answers, Peter Edit : PS: The titel doesn't really reflect my question. Better would have been : SC Data Feed + Brokerage Connection.
