I've thoroughly read your post "[Sticky] [Locked] - Service Package Changes ..." but am not sure I understand the full implications of:

"Service package 10, or 11, or 12 will be required to use the following external services:

-Interactive Brokers
-CQG
-Rithmic
-LMAX
-IQ Feed"

My Setup:
Currently, I feed one instance of SC with [mostly] futures data from IB. I feed a second instance of SC with stock data from the Barchart.com subscription I pay for through SC, and I also feed that stock data into my own software using your excellent DTC protocol.

I do not place orders through SC. For IB, I have my own software that connects to their API for placing my orders.

So my most pressing question is this: If I switch from my current package 3 to package 10, will SC work just as I am using it now (as in, will SC still support the IB data feed) or will I also have to switch to a different data feed (Denali) and pay exchange fees as well to obtain the realtime futures data I currently get from IB?

Apparently my question got lost in the shuffle (there has been no response anyway), so I repeat it here (I need the answer in order to plan for upcoming changes):

Yes. You do not have to use the Denali data feed.
