Accessing historical data through DTCBridge and Rithmic

I am accessing Rithmic trading and data through my own app by running DTCBridge.exe, connecting to LOCALHOST:port xxxx,
sending LOGON_REQUEST, MARKET_DATA_REQUEST, SUBMIT_NEW_SINGLE_ORDER, CANCEL_ORDER, etc. in an effort to try new ways of
speedy order entry - submit/cancel using the mouse and other graphical aids. I subscribe to SierraCharts for your charting
and studies, and as backup in case my stuff locksup/crashes, of course.
I am working on routines to enhance my order entry by manipulating recent historical data to mabey provide further clues.
I currently am in "free mode" as I am not trading, only debugging. When I send a HISTORICAL_PRICE_DATA_REQUEST, I receive
minute bars back only. Will this change giving me second intervals (Service Package 3) or tick intervals (Service Package 5)
automatically when I subscribe again or do I have to do more in HISTORICAL_PRICE_DATA_REQUEST to receive them?

This is not something we would provide any support for. And we do not recommend it.

You need to use the DTC server within Sierra Chart for this:
Data and Trading Communications (DTC) Protocol Server
Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level

Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users. Try to keep your questions brief and to the point. Be aware of support policy:

For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, *change* to the Teton service:

thank you for your prompt response. I did'nt realize that you now allow multiple connections to DTCBridge.
Will use this from now on.
