Hi!

I just purchase the 1 year subscription to SC.

I would like to trade my account and have the trades copied over to my friend's account within Gain Futures.
I tried following the guide here:
Order Allocation to Trade Accounts

but I can't find my friend's account in the "Available Account" list.

Pls advice. Thank you!

Both of the accounts have to be available from the same login (Username) that you use for Gain. It would be very unusual for you and your friends account to be handled under the same Username. Therefore, we would not expect that you will be able to use the Order Allocation feature.

You have to contact Gain Capital and have your username have access to that other account.

From User:

"The trade accounts to which the orders can be copied, will be those Trade Accounts that available on the username that is used to login to the Trading service. In the case of when using the Sierra Chart Order Routing Service, these trading accounts can be with the same clearing firm or different clearing firm, all on the same connection."

From the above, it seems possible to use the Order Allocation on accounts with different username/broker with Sierra Chart Futures Order Routing Service.

Can you guide me on how to use this with Gain capital for different usernames?

Thank you!

This is definitively not supported like you are thinking.
