Thank you @bradh,

Re:
Q1: is there a limit on how many separate instances of SC (installed in separate folders) can be run at the same time on the same machine?

None that I know of. One of the benefits of separate instances is they can run on different cores, so you are ultimately limited by your system hardware: cores, RAM, and speed.

I tried to run 3 independent SC instances this morning, and although I was able to login, I wasn't receiving live data to the 3rd inctance.
I had to close one of the 3 in order to get 2 instances to receive live data and connect to data/service provider.

Q: Do you know if there is a limit of SC after 2 instances and maybe I need to pay extra for more logins? or does it have to do with live data limitations?
I used 3 different and independent Data services such as Rithmic from 2 different sources as well as Gain Capital for the 3rd instance.

Thank you.
