Got any recommendations which [broker] I should select? network latency and proximity to CME is key for me
I'm not familiar with Ironbeam so I have no opinion.
I was with DeepDiscountTrading many years ago, and he was awesome. Was unaware he has any FCMs that support Teton.

You'll want to use a VPS if you require minimum latency and proximity to CME.
There are several independent companies, but Stage5 offers one on their website.

I like FCMs that offer ACH transfers in and out.
Stage5 doesn't have any FCMs that do.
AMP does but they don't offer Teton, yet.
EdgeClear has Philip Capital and they do.
Not sure if DeepDiscountTrading has any FCMs that do.
Not sure if Ironbeam does.
This is obviously an incomplete list.

With spreadsheet for trading study, am I forced to attached trade window to the chart? I want the trade window to be completely hidden
The Spreadsheet System for Trading study doesn't require you do to anything different with the Trade Window that manual trading does, except you must use cell J26 for Order Quantity.
You can detach the Trade Window from the chart and drag it out of sight, or you can close it and the twconfig you selected before will be used.
You can use a formula in cell J112 to choose a twconfig.
