Post From: trade two accounts simultaneous

Thank you John,

So to be clear,

If I want to send orders to 2 different trading services (for 2 different accounts at 2 FCM's);

You mentioned above:
"The closest you can come is to have 2 installations of Sierra Chart with the same strategies running, so they will both kick off at the same time"

I read the Multiple Services link, and I understand that I do not install/run 2 different SC installations but rather use another "Instance" from the main SC.
It opened up, but it seems to be automatically connected to the main SC trading service, and hence I can't seem to be able to modify the trading services on the instance window,
hence I can't send orders to another trading service(?).

Is there a setting within the instance where I can do it, or did I misunderstand you and I have to "run" 2 totally separate installations of SC on my machine
and open 2 totally separate SCs where I can modify trading services and hence send orders of the same strategy to 2 different accounts?

If the later is the case, how can I open 2 SCs on my machine, other then the second instant?

Thank you very much and sorry if I sound confused with probably simple task.

Many thanks.
