You can not do this using the sub-instances (File >> New Instance). You would need to install a second Sierra Chart and then have the one connected to your main trading service and the other connected to the Simulated Futures Trading Service.

As long as both installations are on the same computer, you will get the Denali data to both installations without any trouble, or any additional cost.

Refer to the following for how to install a second Sierra Chart:
Using Multiple Data and Trading Services at the Same Time: Step-By-Step Instructions to Install Multiple Copies of Sierra Chart

And then follow through the steps to setup the Simulated Futures Trading Service at this link:
Simulated Futures Trading Service: Setup Instructions
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
