For exactly what you are wanting, the answer is "not really".

To do what you are wanting, you would have to open Sierra Chart, change the "Current Selected Service" to "SC Data", select OK to close that window and then, when prompted to update the symbols answer "Yes".

--

The better solution would be to have a separate installation of Sierra Chart that you would leave connected to "SC Data". You can then use this for when you just want to look at the charts.

As long as this second installation is on the same computer, then there are no additional fees to set this up. Refer to the following:
