Hi, as I understand I could connect even 3 different brokers/data feeds to Sierra Chart, given I configure 3 different instances of SC. Now, the question I have is whether by instance you mean File/New Instance, or rather installing another 2 copies of SC in C:\SieraChart2\ and C:\SierraChart3\ folders, and then configuring them for the individual brokers/data feeds? When I create File/New Instance the data/service provider dropdown box is greyed out, so I assume the latter is the case...

Also, can you advise if I for example go with Infinity futures (or AMP) and they provide SC for free or at a discount depending on my turnover, is "their" version of SC tied up/restricted in some way to their service/data feeds, or it is just a regular version/installation of SC so by only going with Infinity I could create the following setups:


Infinity version of SC:

1. SC + IB brokerage and data feed (already have IB acct and subscribed to their data).
2. SC + AMP + their data.
3. SC + Infinity + their data.

This way.

Yes.

So the only way I can get SC working with IB is to purchase the license directly from you and install your version of the package, as AMP's or Infinity's will be of no use in this case (setup 1)?
