Mike, I thought you merged the data from TT and IQfeed. Are you not merging the data together?

My MultiCharts charts are powered solely by IQFeed. No TT.

Years ago, I merged by historical data when I exported from NinjaTrader and imported into MultiCharts. But that was mainly for systems backtesting, and as time has gone by I've had less time and less interest in that.

So no, I am not merging anything. But I have powered charts from two separate data sources before, and I've built a chart from historical data + live data (two separate feeds) before, just to see that it can be done.

Using Multicharts,
Do you know if its possibe to automate a strategy and trade it live off of IQfeeds feed solely and when the signals trigger a buy or sell signal off of IQfeed it will send the orders to TT or any other broker?

Yes, the feature is called Symbol Mapping. You can use charts of any supported data feed and send orders to any supported broker. Once you create the broker profile, right-click on it and choose Symbol Mapping > enter the broker symbol for which you'll be sending orders.
