- So, if I add Sierra Chart's Basic Service Package, would I need to open a different instance of Sierra Chart OR just add another workspace (BTC charts) to my current workflow?
Follow the instructions here to access the cryptocurrency market data:
Cryptocurrency / Bitcoin Data and Trading Services: Setup Instructions

It would be best to use a separate installation of Sierra Chart for this.

2. BTC Broker recommendation
- I understand FXCM is the default Cryptocurrency broker. They have an extremely poor reputation and I do not wish to use them. Would you be able to recommend any other broker which has a very good reputation?
This is not the case. We do not recommend using FXCM. Really Sierra Chart at this time does not support trading on any of the crypto currency exchanges. There is BitMex but we do not recommend using that.

3. Transition from Transact Futures
I understand Sierra Chart will discontinue support of Transact Futures around June 1, 2021. Trading Technology is expected to become the default broker. Can you please share their commissions and fees?
There is a misunderstanding here. Trading technologies is one of the service providers we use for order routing but we have others, and we are also developing our own a direct exchange connectivity. They are not a broker.
