Post From: How Do I Access Denali Data Feed with Interactive Brokers as Broker ?

Dear Support,

Currently I use Sierra Chart with data feed from TransAct. As recently I experienced some connectivity issues I'm considering transferring to other broker for continued usage of Sierra Chart. I own a live account with Interactive Brokers and I found IB on your supported brokers list. I'd like to use Denali data feed but not the Tenton order routing service. Here I have some questions.

1) My current Sierra Chart account ID is "TransAct_User_guo123". After switching to Interactive Brokers, do I need apply for a new Sierra Chart account, otherwise it may cause confusion ?

2) Inside Interactive Brokers' client portal, they allow me to subscribe to market data. If I subscribe to service package that includes Denali data feed and activate related exchanges, I don't need subscribe to any market data at IB 'cause it's redundant, right ? (they allow me to trade even if I don't subscribe to any market data).

3) When I log into Sierra Chart, which user ID and password should I input into the login window, the ones for my Interactive Brokers TWS platform or the ones for my Sierra Chart account ?

4) Years ago I used Sierra Chart with Interactive Brokers TWS data feed for a short period of time. As they didn't provide tick by tick data, all studies and charts that require tick data could not be used. Nowadays does the data feed still come from TWS ? If so how does Denali data feed come into play ? Does Interactive Brokers TWS data feed now support tick by tick data and tick charts and studies will work ?

5) I used a installation link provided by TransAct to install the current instance of SC. Do I need install a new instance for Interactive Brokers or I can use the current one just change the log in info ?

Looking forward to your response

Regards
