We would have to check, but if you are in Trade Simulation Mode, there will not be any management of live orders. Which means if the OCO functionality is handled on the Sierra Chart side, it will not work. However, the orders can still execute at the exchange.
We have confirmed this is correct and that it is designed this way for safety reasons. Once you are in Trade Simulation Mode, there is no interaction with a live trading service.So what is the best way to set this up, can I use the second copy connected to the same TT trading/data feed login as live simultaneously, and use it for execution of sim trades only?
What you will need to do in this particular case is run a second copy of Sierra Chart and share the data from the instance connected to TT. You need to do it this way because you cannot connect to the same TT sender comp ID from two different copies of Sierra Chart at the same time. Here are the instructions:Should it be directed to use the Data folder of the original copy? Is there a way to combine/manage the Trade Activity Log data of both together, or transfer my existing Trade data to the second copy? http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/MultipleServices.html The Trade Activity Logs between the two copies of Sierra Chart are separate.
