I think I understand what you mean now: So it is no longer the recommended Setting when using the Emulator, to set the Main Instance to "SC Data" while setting the 2nd Instance (the one where I trade) to "Trading Emulator", but instead you recommend I set my Main Instance directly to "Trading Emulator" and leave the 2nd INstance in the Default Setting of "DTC SUb-Instance".
When using a Sub-Instance, it should be setup the way. But, if you want to have completely separate instances that you start separately, then you can have one set to "SC Data" and another to "Trading Emulator". It just depends on what works best for your setup. But, again, for a separate instance, you should not use the "SierraChartInstance_n" folders. You should install to a completely separate folder from the other instance you have. Refer to the following: Using Multiple Data and Trading Services at the Same Time: Step-By-Step Instructions to Install Multiple Copies of Sierra Chart For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing Date Time Of Last Edit: 2026-01-13 18:27:15
