Yes if you have a live user with one of our customers you can provide them with your sim firm and username and then after an overnight link you will be allowed to access real time quotes in sim based on the quotes your live firm sets you up for. Please be advised that due to exchanges MDLA's the following rules are applied
A Linked sim user login will boot live user login and vice versa unless it’s from the same pc using an api based app.
Logging in Webtrader or fix based app will boot any other login instance (as the physical pc cannot be determined and hence assumed to be different).
Logging in any api based app (including our front-end) will boot any Webtrader or fix based app.
Anyone with problems getting booted by 2 apps or live/sim being used on the same pc should ensure they are using the latest frontends / api versions to ensure that the hardware key is being generated the same.
Billing will also check for linked sim users, and any login during the month with that sim login will cause live fees to be charged, even if they don’t login to the live system. So a user who is enabled for the Professional Option Sheets in live, and hence in sim, but only logs into sim would get charged $1000 in live. Plus users will get market data fees at some point.
