The simplest way to do this is to use Sub-Instances rather than having separately installed instances of Sierra Chart. When you use the Sub-Instances (by selecting File >> New Instance), those instances are automatically setup to receive the data from the primary instance, which is the one that is connected to IB. You can do this because you are wanting all the instances to share the same data and trade through the same trading service.
