I want to be able to be connected to Bitmex [trading] while being able to show data/charts from other Crypto data feeds.
I can make this work by connecting to Cryptocurrencies Data Services adding the symbol to a chart, then switching service back to Bitmex [trading]. While still in Bitmex [trading] I can type in the symbol name for example BTCUSD-BITFINEX and it will load the data for that symbol. However if I goto Find Symbol, I cannot look up new symbols without disconnecting from Bitmex [trading]

I understand I could just create multiple instances... however it would be great to be able to more seamlessly look up symbols across different crypto exchanges while still being able to trade in Bitmex (and swap trading accounts once other exchanges trading capabilities are developed)

Thanks

Sierra Chart is capable of this. And we can certainly set this up without much difficulty. The only reason we avoid it is we do not want to confuse the end-user with a lot of unrelated symbols in the connection used for BitMEX trading.

But maybe we can categorize the symbols in such a way as to not cause confusion.

That would be great. As for now the workaround i've figured out is pretty confusing as well.
Since the Crypto Currencies Service already has all sorts of currencies in it, I personally do not feel it would be more confusing.

Thanks for considering
