This morning I have an odd thing happen when I change from SIM to Live trade in Trade Window, then enter an order, the platform automatically reverts back to SIM again when I click the DOM. After testing it a number of times, I am requesting your input on how to avoid this or trouble-shoot it.

This is because the Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Service Sierra Chart is set to does not support anything other than simulated trading.

It was set to SC Data All Services.
I have been trading right along, and never changed that setting, or had this issue.
However, I will take your word for it. So what should it be set to? I use SC Exchange Data, with orders routed to CQG via AMP Trading.

We apologize for the delay with the response.

In this case it would need to be set to CQG and this is explained here:

Using trade service setting SC Data-All Services when I switch from sim to live the order reverts to sim when placed.
AMP is the broker. Previously used cqg feed but switched last month to SC Denali.

If trade settings use SC Futures order routing all data feed stops.
My brokerage account is listed properly.
