HELLO I HAVE A QUESTION: IWOULD LIKE TO BE ABLE TO TRADE AND DO BACKTESTING AT THE SAME TIME BUT I THINK THAT THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE SINCE TO DO BACKTESTING I HAVE TO DISCONECT SIERRACHART FROM THE DATA FEED SO IF I AM BACKTESTING I CAN'T TRADE AND IF I AM TRADING I WON'T BE ABLE TO DO BACKTESTING SINCE THE DATA FEED WILL BE CONNECTED.

IS THERE ANY WAY TO DO THIS? , THE ONLY THING THAT I CAN THINK OF IS TO HAVE TWO DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS IN SIERRA CHART, SO IN ONE I CAN DO BACKTESTING AND IN THE OTHER I CAN TRADE IN REAL TIME IS THIS RIGHT?

DO YOU RECOMEND ME TO HAVE TWO DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS IN SIERRACHART?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH
