I am subscribed to both SC exchange data feed and Denali (so I can trade EUREX and CME). I am restricted to trading with Interactive Brokers due to requirements of my sponsor.

1. Am I required to also subscribe to exchange data from Interactive Brokers as well as the SC data services I am subscribed to to execute my strategies in real time or is the SC data feeds sufficient? Seems crazy to pay twice but I just want to double check.

2. From what I have read, server side bracket orders are problematic with Interactive Brokers but server side OCO orders are fine. I have server side bracket orders disabled and server side OCO orders enabled. I wanted to check whether this was the best solution for automated trade management using SC with Interactive Brokers?

1. You do not have to pay the exchange fees through Interactive Brokers if you do not want the real-time data within Trader Workstation.

2. Use server-side bracket orders unless you see a problem.
