What I didn't see mentioned though is how trade-related messages are actually passed to the broker once their received by the server. Is that something a custom study is needed for?

Oh, right! Ah, first you sign into your trading account via SC. Then any DTC messages you send to the SC Protocol server will be for that trading account.

(You can have multiple SC instances that each have a different trading account all running unique SC protocol servers to pass messages to.)

The other part is the DTC client for the Linux server. Not sure how involved that will be to implement. Hopefully there's some open source code available.

_norvik provided a C++ example of a DTC protocol client that I linked to in post 6 above.

A few months ago I also searched DTC Protocol on GitHub and found these projects —- I think a few are in C++ — they are listed in no particular order.

https://github.com/QANTau/DTC-Client

I implemented a DTC client in Rust and it was doable but would likely take someone working full time half a month at least. Maybe _norvik has a different opinion.
