Hello, I'm aware of using two instances of S.C. for data and the other for manually placing orders but I'm wondering how to configure two instances of SC for automated spreadsheet trading. One taking data from IQ feed for charting while sending live orders to Interactive Brokers. Thanks. |

Hello, I have considered switching to Sierra feed. I'm just curious how it's easier? Is it because I have to run two copies with IB and IQfeed but with Sierra Chart feed and I.B. I only need one instance running? Thanks. |

Yes, in general this is it. And the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed delivers historical data much faster. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
