You can use two copies of Sierra Chart.

One can use IB True Real-time data and another one not.

By sharing data between instances, you should be able to accomplish what you require:

You should also be able to implement some kind of solution even in a single instance by using the True real-time data option and accessing the IB standard data feed through the Time and Sales array:

And combining them together.

The support for -TD symbols was removed because the implementation was very complex and hard to understand and we were always subscribing to true real-time data, even though the user was not using the option. Once this was removed, the code was greatly cleaned up and this should have been done long ago. It just did not make sense with the way this was all designed.
