More questions:
We have recently explored more of Sierra's capabilities and I had a few questions that I hope you would be able to answer.
1. Do the .scid files Sierra stores data in get updated on the system hard drive in real time if I am connected to a real time data feed? (By update I mean the trades that happen in real time since the .scid files is in the format of trade-level data).

2.I have found a way to access the data from the .scid files in a python environment for some higher order processing. Is there any way to write my trade decisions into a file so that Sierra can send my orders through? Or any other way to patch my orders from an external environment to your routing servers would be fine.

3. On a related topic, I had raised a support ticket regarding working with tick-level data in sierra and order flow parameters like market depth. (link: Tick Charts). It would be great if some functionality within Sierra like Quote Spreadsheet would help us achieve the same in 2.
