Post From: DTC Protocol Paper Trading Not Displaying in Trading DOM

Hello Sierra Chart Support,

I've successfully implemented a DTC Protocol client that connects to Sierra Chart and can submit orders. The logs on both sides confirm the connection is working correctly:

- My application logs show successful connection to the DTC server
- Sierra Chart logs show receiving the messages, including order submissions
- Sierra Chart acknowledges the orders with "Received unknown message type from client. Type = 3001"

The issue I'm facing is that while the DTC communication works, the paper trading orders submitted through DTC Protocol don't appear in the Trading DOM interface or anywhere else in Sierra Chart's UI.

In my order submission, I'm including:
- IsSimulated: 1
- IsAutomatedOrder: 1
- TradeAccount: "SIM"

What specific configuration is needed to have Sierra Chart display paper trading orders submitted via DTC Protocol in the Trading DOM interface? Is there a specific account designation required or settings that need to be enabled?

Thank you for your assistance.
