First, we want to thank you for your question. This is really very important, because it is so important that we educate people on the capabilities of Sierra Chart, and how we provide superior solutions as compared to everyone else.

I do not or better said, I will not run a DOM and trade off my SC instance that I am currently charting with. This is for several reasons. One I have always keep my trading platform separate on both software and PC and will continue too do that.
Yes this makes absolute sense. You can run multiple instances of Sierra Chart. One you can use strictly for trading and others for charting. This is explained here:

All of these instances will be fed by the Denali Exchange Data Feed by just paying a single exchange fee. None of this is a problem and has been supported for years.

What I am looking to do is run a separate instance of SC on a 2nd PC to solely run the DOM for trading using Teton and one of your preferred vendors.
This is absolutely supported. You can run as many installations as you require. You will need to use the Denali Exchange Data Feed. You can use that from two systems at a time. Although the CME is going to require though you pay two exchange fees. All of this is supported by Denali.

Although you really just need a single system and just get a more capable system regarding cores and memory and storage. Completely up to you.


1. As I understand it I can have a second instance running on a different PC with what I am currently subscribed too... is that correct?
2. I would need to pay an additional 11 dollars for the data too be fed to that second pc? I am only concerned about getting 10 levels on the DOM.
The answer to this is yes and yes. Also, if Transact was allowing two connections to two different systems for a single fee, they really were not compliant with CME policy. Totally fine with us. We are just saying. We are not here to be condemning anyone regarding that tyrannical policy.
