Does SC supports Gain Capital's GTX ECN market data and order execution too?

We guess so. We are not familiar with this though.

Among the FX brokers supported by SC, Gain Capital is the only licensed forex broker based in Singapore.

It's important for SC to support GTX ECN FIX from Gain Capital because Singapore is ranked 3rd in the world in term of forex volume of transactions. Though Singapore is the gateway for Southeast and APAC forex hub too.

Since SC is supporting Gain Capital retail forex via FIX, it's likely that SC will also supports GTX ECN FIX for high volume traders.

Why not use LMAX?:
LMAX Trading Service

We really do not recommend Gain Capital. We think it is going to be a serious mistake for spot Forex trading. We have seen far too many problems. Take our advice and do not pursue Gain Capital through Sierra Chart. You will only create a burden for us.

According to LMAX website, LMAX is not available for residents of Singaporean.

'The information on this website is not directed at residents of the United States of America, Australia (we will only deal with Australian clients who are “wholesale clients” as defined under the Corporations Act 2001), Canada (although we may deal with Canadian residents who meet the “Permitted Client” criteria), Singapore or any other jurisdiction where FX trading and/or CFD trading is restricted or prohibited by local laws or regulations.

Since SC does not recommend Gain Capital, may I know how close would be the status to connect to Oanda FX?

Your IP location indicates you are not in Singapore, but maybe this is an incorrect indication. It would seem to us if you have an address and a bank account in another country outside of one of those countries, that would be enough to open an account with LMAX and avoid the restriction.

The only other possibility is FXCM. There are no plans to support Oanda. Integrating to another service is a major task and would take at least a year to get done and perfected.
