Post From: SC data for datafeed and IB for trading

Hello, I am writing to you as I have not found a specific similar case in the forum. I am trying to connect SC to an Interactive Broker account. I followed the guide to configure the API on TWS and so far everything is ok, SC sees the IB account and through the menu "trade-> open trade window for chart" I can send orders to the account. The problem lies in the flow of data. If I select "interactive broker" in "data / trade service setting", SC starts to receive data from TWS while I would like to use the data of "SC Data - All services". If I select "SC Data - All services" within the "data / trade service setting", I return to having the SC data but I cannot send orders to TWS. The question is: How do I use your datafeed service and send orders to TWS? Obviously, according to the guide I found, within the interactive broker settings, I selected "Allow Support for Sierra Chart Data Feeds" to YES. At the moment I have a level 5 license, so with delayed data and to do some first tests on an automated trading system are fine for me (using an IB demo account). Is it a licensing issue (do I need to upgrade to Service Package 11 license)? Or am I wrong to do some configuration? I also add that as specified in the guide, when I select Interactive Broker from the "data / trade service setting" menu, I do not see the [M], which instead I see when I am connected to the SC data feed. Could you please help me? Thank you very much in advance for your reply and let me know if you need some additional detail. |
