Post From: Can Denali feed be used with a DTC trading server?

Following up with a result, in case it helps the others in this thread.

This does work. With Current Selected Service = DTC Service pointed at my own DTC server (MarketDataSupported = 0, HistoricalPriceDataSupported = 0, trading messages only), Denali feeds the charts normally. A symbol with no cached data files mapped, downloaded 4.1 years of daily plus intraday history, showed the [M] indicator, and connected the Denali Data Feed. Intraday bars and footprint charts render correctly.

What was needed: Symbol Settings are stored per service code, and the fresh "dtc" set is empty. Copying the wildcard pattern templates from the SC Data service code across (bare ? through ??????????, plus the -NQTV family) supplies the mapping. The fields that matter per template are Symbol Service Code, SC Data Service Code, SC Data Symbol, Real-Time Data Client, and the two Historical Data Source fields. Common Settings >> Allow Support for Sierra Chart Data Feeds is set to Yes.

One trap worth flagging for anyone else trying this: the Real-Time Data Client dropdown alternates real-time and Delayed entries for each sub-client number, so it is easy to select the Delayed variant by mistake. Charts still populate and still show [M], so nothing looks wrong -- the only tell is the Message Log naming "Delayed Data Feed" instead of "Denali Data Feed".

My question now is narrower: is this a supported configuration? I subscribe to Nasdaq TotalView and the US Equities Consolidated Tape on Package 12, everything runs on one machine, and no market data leaves Sierra Chart -- only orders go to my own server. But I would rather know now whether you consider this outside intended use, or whether it is likely to stop working in a future version, before I build anything further on top of it.
