Trading strategies on Sim101 with two connections

[werido]

Hi,

I've got two connections simultaneously, MB Trading and PFG. First, am I correct that there can only be one connection that drives the chart data and that is going to be the one connected first? Or can even the second connection be used to drive a second chart?

Second, since the first connection is what drives the chart data, is it possible to run a trading strategy on Sim101 or some other sim account, which trades on the second connection's prices?


Thanks.

Correct, all data is taken from the primary connection - only if the primary connection would not support an instrument category, the request would go the secondary connection to see if it's can be fullfilled from it.

You can execute to the Sim101 still, however the primary's connection data would be used.
