I have an opportunity to Prop Trade for an outside company, however, I would like to continue trading my private account and simply have my private SC trades "copied and mirrored" for the prop trading account (also uses SC)?

Is there a way to use one data feed in a Master/Slave relationship so that when I place a trade with my private broker inside SC, have that Master trade immediately copied to the Slave Prop trading account in another instance of SC? Thanks.

This may be possible but it is not directly supported within Sierra Chart. It would be something supported through the trading service you are using. So Sierra Chart could work with this kind of feature if supported on the trading system backend.

I'm not a programmer or tech person so please bear with me, but wouldn't it be a matter of creating some type of .dll/tool that connects the two instances of SC without the need for configuring the trading system backend? By linking the two instances on the user end, it would allow the flexibility to have both instances use completely separate brokers, instead of needing both instances to be with the same broker with backend compatibility.

I know Metatrader software has several tools that link two open instances of the software in a master/slave relationship. Was curious if you could suggest what the best method/route would be to accomplish this (dlls or strategies) that I can forward to a programmer. Thanks.
