Hello Team Sierrachart,

I can have a question

1) Since Interactive Brokers are not responsible for system failure and the customer must maintain alternative market access in addition to access to the IB account - How to ensure accurate data acquisition from an alternative trading platform?

Ideal Datafeed Connection - The Most Stable Alternative Intra-Day Trading Provider?
Where can I get more levels of market depth - more than 10 levels at IB?

Linking 2 brokers, one for tick data and the other for a higher time frame?

Under one license I can use SC on two separate systems. For more concurrently running SCs, do more systems need to be ordered?


2) How to Set Up SierraChart for Multiple Study and Indicators - Processor and Memory (12 CPU / 32 GB RAM)

- download additional standalone SierraChart,
- or create a separate copy of the primary SierraChart,
- or use only "new instance" in primary SC?

I mean more SC for load distribution and one SC as master, others accept the data from it? Different studies and graphs, interval update graphs?

Thank you

We apologize for the delay. There are just a lot of questions here.

1. Ideal Datafeed Connection - The Most Stable Alternative Intra-Day Trading Provider?
Use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed:
Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed

Where can I get more levels of market depth - more than 10 levels at IB?
We have no recommendation for this. But we hope that this will be added to the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed soon.

Linking 2 brokers, one for tick data and the other for a higher time frame?
If you use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed, this will not be necessary.

Under one license I can use SC on two separate systems. For more concurrently running SCs, do more systems need to be ordered?
Yes this is the case.

2.
- or use only "new instance" in primary SC?
Yes. Documentation:

I mean more SC for load distribution and one SC as master, others accept the data from it?
Yes.

Different studies and graphs, interval update graphs?
Yes you can accomplish all of this.
