I see sc.AreRenkoBars(), but is there some way to discover which of the four Renko bar types are on the chart? Thanks, Dale |

No, there is not. This kind of capability will be done sometime this year. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

FYI and FWIW to anyone who cares about this, the distinguishing name does exist in GetStudyName(0). Here is some code I use to pull it out. Not tested on every kind of symbol, so YMMV. I could have done more error checking, and Sierra Chart may break this with future changes, of course. void GetContinuousContractAndBarsPeriodTypeCodes(SCStudyInterfaceRef sc, SCString& ccCode, SCString& barsPeriodType)
{ SCString thisName = sc.GetStudyName(0); // like ESM7 [CB] Flex Renko 32-31-1 #5 --but Continuous None gives no [] std::vector<char*> tokens; thisName.Tokenize(" ", tokens); SCString token0 = tokens[0]; if (tokens.size() < 3 || token0 != sc.Symbol) { ccCode = barsPeriodType = "INVALID"; return; } auto token1 = tokens[1]; int barsPeriodStartIndex; if (token1[0] == '[') { ccCode = token1; barsPeriodStartIndex = 2; } else { ccCode = "[C0]"; barsPeriodStartIndex = 1; } for (size_t i = barsPeriodStartIndex; i < tokens.size() - 2; i++) { barsPeriodType += tokens[i]; } } |

It definitely does!This is an example of what you will get: ESH17 1 Min #1 Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
