This is not my thread, so excuse me if I'm intruding, but I'd like to know what role Sierra Charts plays specifically , and what kind
of access you have to accounts. (Do you collect trading statistics? Do you collect replay/simulator statistics? , are you able to see traders codes if they write any, and can you access their platform ? )

Or are you purely a platform software interface and nothing else? What raised the concern for me is that I seem to have to be online
in order to use the software. Though I have not been profitable to date, I notice that other people keep their strategy very secret and so I wonder if software companies such as this one, are able to 'spy' on their best traders? *If so , then I want to see too :)

I'm just curious about how this all works, and being drawn towards the shadows, this shadow seems to need answers. This is an industry where it seems the best traders are very secretive , and yet they use software that they don't know who is on the other end, or what the software really dose. As far as I know there is no authority that makes trading software's reveal all that they do, such as with the apple apps store and the like. The software has not been independently audited so to speak. So really we have no idea what this software does on the back end, or what data it collects. For all we know you could be "replaying" your best trader's simulations and learning all you can from their hard work. I'm not being paranoid here, just realistic. It's a shadow, and I think it probably should see some light.
