Hello, This is a newbie question but I have searched the website and can't seem to find the answer. Can someone please tell me how I can export time and sales data including studies? I.E. if I wanted to download an EMA and oscillator included with the time and sales data? Thank you for the help. |

Set the chart bars to 1 Number of Trades Per Bar. Refer to: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/ChartSettings.html#TimePeriodPerBar Add the studies and then export the data following these instructions: Edit Menu: Edit >> Export Bar and Study Data to Text File Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Should the chart bar settings read 1-0-0? Also, I can download the data but it doesn't show the studies, is there some box that should be checked to make this distinction? |

No. The Bar Period Type needs to be set to Number of Trades Per Bar with a setting of 1. Here are instructions to use studies: Chart Studies: Adding/Modifying Chart Studies Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

If I set the bar period Type to "Number of Trades Per Bar" and "1" I get the same data when exporting, on just a much smaller time frame. It does not export the EMA. I am simply trying to download a 5 minute chart with a 10 period EMA. Is there a basic way to perform that task? |

We do not think we understand really what you want to do. Based on this last message, set the chart bars to 5 minutes per bar. And specifically use this command to export the data: Edit Menu: Edit >> Export Bar and Study Data to Text File (Export Bar and Study Data to Text File) Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Thank you for the reply. When I use the instructions provided above(Export Bar and Study Data to Text File). It downloads the following information: Date, Time, Open, High, Low, Last, Volume, # of Trades, OHLC Avg, HLC Avg, HL Avg, Bid Volume, Ask Volume, Avg, Stop I have a 10 period EMA on the chart, but it does not provide a value for that EMA for the corresponding time period. Can this be done? |

The moving average value is Avg. It is the Subgraph name for the Moving Average - Exponential study.
