Hi
I have open a free trial account with Sierra Charts and I want it to be connected to a sim account I have in Stage5 trading. I already did the download and did the DTS connection. However, Sierra Charts will not open.
I did the installation on a folder named "SierraCharts2" as I already have Sierra Charts running with an account I have with Infinity Futures. However I want to close this Infinity futures account and move everything to Stage5 trading,
The problem is I am not able to open Sierra Charts.
I am sending the message log for you to analyse

thank you very much

The problem is you are unable to connect to the Gain Capital FIX server. The reason is explained here:
