I have several ChartBooks open, each one represents a different instrument.

I would like to LIVE trade say the emini S&P500 (ES) related ChartBook, but at the same time practice trading Crude Oil (CL) in another ChartBook using SIM1 connection.

Is this possible? I could not see how to do it.

Thx

Yes this is possible.

The recommended method is to run another instance as documented here:
