Hello SC team - so far I have been using your traditional way of using "remote data" to bring up the chart and using the local trading symbol for trading. I would like to switch to DTC mode to see if I could do the following. Went through the doc listed at this page - http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/DTCServer.php#UsingDTCServerForDataAndTradingInAnotherSCInstance But there are few questions remain. - I would like to use the data/trading from service - A (say CTS as an example) - I would like to use the trading only using service - B (say IB as an example) and data needs to come from the above CTS instance. So far the steps followed - in the CTS instance enabled DTC protocol server with listening port 11099 & historical port 11098. Assuming I would have to configure second instance with "DTC Sub-instance". Is this the correct assumption? If so where do I fill-in the IB account details in this sub-instance? If this is not a correct assumption - would you please let me know how to go about this? Thanks Date Time Of Last Edit: 2016-07-30 19:24:25

Thank you SC team. Would continue to use the traditional way - open the symbol from remote instance & using the local trading symbol for this purpose. Assuming this is the supported configuration. From the link below - you mention - using remote data file is no longer supported. Does this mean old way of using one instance for data & one instance for trading (different data provider) is no longer supported or am I reading it incorrectly?. Both these services would reside on the same machine (not remote). Would you please confirm? http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/MultipleServices.html#SettingChartReferenceLocalSymbolDataFile The following instructions explain how to set a chart to reference the local chart data file instead of a remote chart data file from another remote copy of Sierra Chart. This information is here because some users may be using the no longer supported remote chart data file feature.
