For the order to fill, Sierra Chart has to be connected to the data feed.


I am curious as so how Sim trading works, as I assumed that even if I disconnected my internet connection, that the order would remain in Sierra's system.
The orders are held within your copy of Sierra Chart.


This is not such a big deal because it is in Sim but I am sure you can understand that I can not risk this happening in live trading.
In the case of live trading, just make sure you understand the information here about Attached Orders:
