2. The specific command to enable trade simulation mode and disable it is Trade >>Trade Simulation Mode On

You can leave the connection to the trading service to the live server always and use Sierra Chart Trade Simulation Mode for simulated trading.

My concern is that if I leave the global settings on Live Mode and have sim mode enabled on the charts, live orders can be sent when Im in Sim mode?
Non-simulated orders will not be sent to your trading service when Trade >>Trade Simulation Mode On is checked.

On the same note, Im assuming if I uncheck sim mode on the charts (go live) but have sim live enabled on the global settings, then orders will be sent to the sim server?
Yes.
