1. There is not a way to color the background as you are asking in the attached image. You can, however, display the bounding box showing the coverage of the Volume by Price profile. Refer to the following setting:
Volume By Price Study: Draw Profile Outline Enclosing Bars

You can also use the Color Background Based on Alert Condition study and specify the alert by the time period you want to color. Refer to the following:
Color Background Based on Alert Condition

2. You should not be having any issues with the Move to Breakeven. In order to get it to move to +1, you need to have the offset set. Refer to the following:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Set >> Move to BE Offset

Let us know if you still have an issue and the specific problem and how you are experiencing it.

3. With regards to best performance, refer to the following:
High CPU Usage | Inactive User Interface | Poor Performance | Long Time to Load Chart Data | Charts Reloading Often: 30.48 - Basic Steps to Resolve Performance Issue in Sierra Chart

4. The best way to connect to different trading services is to have multiple Sierra Chart installations (one for CQG and one for IBKR). Refer to the following:
Using Multiple Data and Trading Services at the Same Time

You will get your Denali data into both instances without an issue as long as they are on the same computer.

We are not sure what you mean by this:
Does that mean CQG data cannot be hooked up to another device at the same time (let's say another charting software) and still have the ability to execute orders for the AMP account in SC?

For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
