"2. If the symbol used for Trading is different than the symbol of the chart data file, then enter this Trading symbol in this box. This allows you to trade from the chart using the symbol specified in this box, and to receive market depth data, Bid and Ask data, and the data for the Window >>Current Quote Window using the connected Trading service in the copy of Sierra Chart where you are entering this symbol. This setting does not affect the data used for chart bars themselves . The chart bars are always from the data in the chart data file specified by the main Symbol setting of the chart"

does this allow an automated spreadsheet trading system that generates signals from one symbol to trade a different symbol in order to cut the amount of spreadsheets used down?
ei spreadsheet system for the EURO futures but will execute on M6e without using a seperate spreadsheet for m6e ?
