You can use as many Sierra Chart instances on the same computer as you want. The problem is you cannot use File >> New Instance. You need to install completely independent copies of Sierra Chart following the instructions here: Using Multiple Data and Trading Services at the Same Time And the Service in Sierra Chart needs to be set to use Interactive Brokers.
