You have to be a bit careful, but this can be done. The main thing to keep in mind is that the sub-instance can not be in Simulation Mode itself, or it will not pick up any information from the main instance.

Whatever trading you are doing in the Main Instance, you need to replicate that in the sub-instance, meaning that you need to have the same Trade Account. So if you are using Trade Simulation Mode in the Main Instance with a Sim1 account, then the sub-instance needs to NOT be in Simulation Mode (otherwise it just looks for its own information) and that the Trading Window for the charts where you want to get the data from the Main Instance are set to the Sim1 trading account.

The same is true for the Trading Evaluator. Whatever account you are using the Main Instance needs to be selected in the Sub-Instance.

Refer to the following for how to select a Trade Account:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Main/C >> Trade Account (Selecting Trade Account for Chart / Trade DOM)
