Rather than start a new thread I'll post my questions here since it's similar enough and may help OP and others... I too had SC 5 w/AMP & CQG (also accounts at Interactive Brokers). Switched over to a direct account at Sierra, package 5, Denali feed and SC Order routing. The switch happened in less than 24 hrs and was pretty easy so thanks to SC & AMP! BTW for AMP users doing this update your live trading platform setup request form to Which Datafeed? --> DISABLE all exchange data. You will need to setup a *new* account at SC since the other one is associated with AMP as a 3rd party affiliate and won't allow you to use IB. Everything else happens on SC site/account page (funding, data feed, exchange, linking to AMP acct etc). I've seen the messages & threads about CQG, IB data feed & trade routing support issues so I'm entirely on SC platform, data feed and order routing. My questions and preferred setup are: *Use Denali Feed for ALL futures data (AMP & IB) *Use SC Order Routing for AMP & IB accounts for futures trades **************** ***Questions**** **************** 1 - Can one installation/instance of SC be used to trade AMP & IB accts (with Denali Feed & SC Order routing)? 2 - During connection to IB "we recommend using the Sierra Chart Order Routing Service instead of Interactive Brokers". Which I thought was setup... Under File --> Data/Trade Service --> Settings I have SC Futures and Routing/Data setup and Interactive Brokers setup (check box on both for allow Sierra Chart Data Feeds). The Trade Log for AMP shows SC Routing, Trade Log for IB says 'IB Order Fill' so it looks like SC Order routing isn't setup correctly for IB, hence the message? 3 - From the SC website --> Account Control Panel --> Trading Accounts I see AMP listed and everything is fine (but not IB). Does anything need to be done here to add IB accts & routing? 4 - Do the settings under Data/Trade Service Settings apply only when it's active and connected or is it a global setting? Meaning if I have SC Future Order Routing/Data selected how do I connect to my IB account(s) or if I have my IB account selected how does the SC order routing occur? Thanks!
