Hi, I have been trading LIVE with Sierra Chart futures data feed, and Interactive Brokers. Is it possible to get a second connection for the futures data feed, so that I can use IB's paper trading account ( for testing ) and LIVE account ( for real money trading ) at the same time ? Whenever I log on to my LIVE account, the paper trading account will stop getting any real-time quotes from IB. I tried the following: using IB's real-time data feed for the LIVE account, and then connecting the paper-trading account to IQ Feed via Sierra Chart. However, the "Move to Breakeven for Stop" feature will not function properly. Thanks. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2013-11-26 16:56:28

Yes, this is absolutely supported. Enable a second Sierra Chart real-time futures data feed on your account to use it with another connection to Interactive Brokers. Just be sure on the copy of Sierra Chart you are using with your paper trading account that you connect once to your Live account each calendar month to get the Sierra Chart data feed subsequently after that.

Thanks. I'll do that. By the way, what is the most stable version of Sierra Chart that I should install that'll work best with your futures data feed, and Interactive Brokers. I already downloaded the newest version of TWS. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2013-11-27 16:19:38

The latest prerelease of Sierra Chart will be fine to use.
