These will not be documented because they are Sierra Chart specific and internally used:
Even the HEARTBEAT message, which supposed to be 16 bytes as per the docs and the C++ header file at https://dtcprotocol.org/DTC_Files/DTCProtocol.h is much, much longer now as the server sends me 62 byte heartbeats.

The latest header files have now been released on the DTCProtocol.org website.

t_DateTimeWithMillisecondsInt OrderReceivedDateTime; // this gives me invalid dates, but works with t_DateTime
This is a UNIX time value in milliseconds as an integer. Sierra Chart could be sending this though in microseconds.

Where:
And again, based on the JSON messages at least one Username field is undocumented.

If there is any missing documentation other than what you have specifically mentioned let us know.
