Multiple Connections - Choosing which instrument uses which connection

[Big D]

I have 3 possible datafeed connections. 1) eSignal. 2) Zen-Fire for US markets. 3) TT for foreign markets. The Zen-Fire and TT connections can trade. eSignal is just data. Let's say ESisthe US symbol andN225 (Nikkei)is the foreign symbol.

Is it possible to:

1) Open a chart for ES and have it connect to Zen-Fire?

2) Open a chart for N225 and have it connect to TT?

3) Open a chart for something else and have it connect to eSignal?

4) Open a DOM and have it connect to the correct connection for trading?

5) Have automated strategies running that connect to the appropriate connection?

- you can set up any amount of connections in NT as you'd like
- you only can have one futures order connection at a time open, since orders would be routed to first connection supporting future orders. The second connection just will be ignored
- the logic is driven by instrument type and not actual instruments, meaning you can not trade one future on connection A and another future on connection B
- you can trade instrument type A on connection A and instrument type B on connection B simultaneously, if connection A does not support instrument type B and connection A is the first
- you can have eSignal as datafeed connection (connect first) and Zen or (!!, since they both support futures) TT as order connection (connect second) at the same time
