Hi,

Is it possible to do a cumulative sum of study but for resetting after x period of time?

For example, cumulative sum of study for 5 minutes then reset. I want the sums for each time slice.

Thanks!!

There is not a built-in study that can do this. You would need to develop it. You can start with the code for the "Cumulative Sum of Study" which is in Studies8.cpp which is in the ACS_Source directory under your main Sierra Chart installation. Refer to the following:

Will a periodic summation work? Or is that a different calculation?

Thanks

There is a study called 'Summation- Periodic', just noticed there is also a 'Summation of Study Subgraph- Periodic'

Would any of those do what I want?

Many thanks!

No those other ones work differently.

Do follow post #2. You can modify the existing study to do what you need.
