I would like to know if the responsiveness of the program is affected by multiple instances using the same data folder. Is it also possible the connection with your server may affect responsiveness as well? I have noticed the unresponsiveness of sc is intermittent and also makes me wonder if it might be my computer regarding memory management. Would appreciate every bit of help in this sense, because my chartbooks are memory intensive and I will need multiple instances. Is it also possible to somehow identify the various instances when pinned in the task bar? What I would like to do is give a name to each instance eg. NQ-trade or NQ-test and be able to see this in the task bar. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-10-16 15:44:41

You are creating your own problems. Never ever use the same data folder among multiple instances of Sierra Chart. This is not documented and there is documentation that says not to do that. You have corrupted the files within that folder and will need to delete them. Refer to the documentation here about this: Using Multiple Data and Trading Services at the Same Time: Step-By-Step Instructions to Install Multiple Copies of Sierra Chart Also refer to: Http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/helpdetails30.html Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
