There are 2 solutions to this.

1. Share data from one copy of Sierra Chart using the Sierra Chart Real-Time and Historical Forex Data Feed to a copy of Sierra Chart using Interactive Brokers. This is explained in this section here:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/MultipleServices.html#General

2. If you are using a data file from the Sierra Chart Real-Time and Historical Forex Data Feed, and want to use it with a different service with different symbols, you have to rename the chart data file (to the IB symbol) as explained here:

It does not help to use a Alternate Real-time Update Symbol in this 2nd case. It does not work in the way that you are looking for.


We recommend 1.
