In the reference document, it said that need to have over $10k in FXCM live account to connect to sierra chart. I wonder can I work with simulation FXCM account if I have over $10k in live account?

Is the simulated trading real time? I put in market order, and the price got is frequently 2 pips away. I used EUR/USD, the spread on FXCM own screen said just to be 0.4 pip spread.

Yes the simulated trading is real-time. There could be a difference with the spread between the Bid and Ask compared to the FXCM account you are comparing to.

Yes there can be because there is more than one data feed that FXCM has. We do have another data feed for FXCM and we will see if we can provide that without using your live account. Although if you are using your live account you can select to use it. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
