Is there a way to use SC Forex (FXCM) data, but execute my trades through IB?
Currently I run SC using IB data and also trade using SC charts and Trade DOM.
I need good Volume data, but still want to manage my trades on the chart and Trade DOM.

The last sentence in this documentation reads: "When you submit orders from the chart, they will use the Interactive Brokers symbol specified in the Trade and Current Quote Symbol edit box."
Does that also apply to the DOM or how do I open a DOM that will do the same as chart trading?

I got the DOM sorted out. Thank you.
After having made the changes you advised, I notice that I cannot compress and decompress my chart bars by clicking in the Y-axis and dragging up or down to compress or decompress the chart area horizontally. How do I fix this?
