Metatrader (MT5) to SC Data Bridge Before I go searching for a programmer to code this tool I have a few questions. I know it's possible to build an MT5 Expert Advisor (EA) tool to send market data out based on this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdRCJwbM5pE I own Jigsaw daytradr. I currently use this data bridge and it works great! Q1. Could it be possible for SC to somehow make a connection to an MT5 (tick) data bridge as Jigsaw has? Q2. If yes, would the DTC Protocol be the method of choice for receiving this tick data within SC? Q3. Could SC be able to receive all the historical data that is loaded in an MT5 chart then update tick-by-tick in real-time? If this is possible I'll start looking to hire someone to code this. Any thoughts or suggestions are welcomed. Thank you! |

We think any solution developed would not be of good quality and would have problems. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

User411121, No I did not find any help in developing a data bridge to send MT5 tick data to SC. Sierra Chart Engineering, I use CQG as my data source which only allows ONE (active) direct connection per trading platform. Additional CQG platform connections cost $10 each plus additional exchange fees for each connection. I use several different platforms for charting the markets (MultiCharts, MultiCharts.NET, NT, MT5, MatLab, etc.). Since this original post I have moved on and stopped using SC because of this data issue. I have also started using TS again for future plans of finding a programmer to code an OOEL data bridge to SC, NT, MT5. Both MultiCharts platforms provide direct data connections between MC and TS for real-time charting. It would be great if SC provided a DTC connection to ANY other trading platforms for receiving market data. However, I'm not asking SC for this capability because I know the answer would be NO. |

And with their current system it is possible to have a purchased CQG feed + a metatrader login which can be used simultaneously without extra cost.
What AMP is offering is CQG order routing, futures data and LMAX trading in meta-trader. Sierra Chart effectively does the same with TT and LMAX. We plan to combine that into one offering as well so that you can trade both in a single instance of Sierra Chart. But still you can achieve what you want right now. So we still in the end don't get what the objective is here. And also as we look over post #4 we still don't get it. Sierra Chart has its own data feeds, and these are good data feeds and you can use that data through the DTC protocol server in Sierra Chart for your own purposes. You just have to pay for one data feed and the capabilities of Sierra Chart are so broad, why do you need these other programs. Even if you want to use those other programs, why do not those other programs use the DTC protocol server in Sierra Chart. There simply is nothing for us to do here at all. We have set an exceptionally high standard for doing things right and providing good feeds. For us to be wasting time with substandard and problematic bridge interfaces simply makes no sense. This is never going to happen. Our abilities are far beyond this. We are working on direct exchange connectivity at this point in time and full risk management capabilities.

I was thinking something along the lines of this guy but may differ in some ways. I desperately need a mobile app or a way to trade on the go. Web based would be fine. Really all I need is a dom as I can watch the charts from my think or swim platform. I work crazy hours and sometimes I trade at work. I haven't figured out a way to do this with seirra charts. Any guidance?
