SC Support, I successfully registered for the feed and it works when I am logged into my Interactive Brokers account. I would like to run two copies of SC: 1) First copy on my laptop using IB for individual stock data. 2) Second copy on my desktop using just the SC CME data feed. I have SC installed on both machines but cannot get the CME feed to work without being logged into IB. Can you please advise on solution? Thanks in advance. |

1. No problem. 2. This will not work. There is no solution. You must be using your Interactive Brokers account to access the data.

Thanks for clearing that up. I thought it was only necessary to log into IB once a month to qualify for exchange fee waiver. Regarding #2 in my original email, can I use the CME feed on a second copy of SC with my desktop logged into TD Ameritrade? I saw the following on the SC page for TD and I am a little confused. Note: Futures trading and market data is not supported when using TD Ameritrade because it is not supported by the TD Ameritrade API that Sierra Chart uses to connect to the TD Ameritrade systems. However, it is possible to receive a separately provided futures data feed for CME futures. For additional information about this, refer to Sierra Chart Real-Time and Historical Futures Data Feed. Does this mean that I could use the CME feed with TD Ameritrade to view the data, but that I would not be able to trade using SC and TD as my broker? |

Thanks for the quick response. Then it sounds like this is what I need to do to have both copies of SC being "tradeable". 1) First copy on my laptop using TD Ameritrade for individual stock data. 2) Second copy on my desktop using IB with the SC CME data feed. Please confirm this should work? Appreciate your help. |

1, 2. Both of these will work.
