Dear Madam/Sir,

Thank you replying to my support ticket of yesterday re: trading a Dorman/NinjaBrokerage account from within Sierra Charts.

I have another technical, I guess, question.

I am a holder of an IB trading account. I am login into it once every 1st of the month for the CME reduced fees as non-pro. When I do that I open TWS on my desktop and go to Data/Trade setup in Sierra and connect into IB using my TWS user/pass at 127.0.0.1: port #.

When I do that SC gets data from IB on all charts. If I want to trade my IB account from DOM I guess I can. Have not done it yet, however. The futures symbols are different in IB from the Denali feed I have currently.

Is it possible to trade the IB account from within Sierra (DOM or the charts) but have data (on all charts/DOM) from the Denali Exchange Data feed (I am now connecting using the All Data option in the data/trade setup)?

Would I be able to trade both the IB and my Dorman/NinjaBrokerage account from within Sierra Chart (DOM) at the same time?

Appreciate the reply in advance

Many thanks,
Spyridon

Hello,
Regarding this thread and specifically Sierra Chart support for Equity Trading:
Q: is there a list of all current Brokers or proprietary firms that support Sierra chart connection other than interactive brokers?

I am specifically looking for the updated list of Brokers to trade US equities.

Thank you very much.
