What I would like to do is import Option Volume data and display it on a stock chart. Does Sierra Chart support that functionality? |

Refer to the information here for importing data: Exporting and Importing Intraday Data Files: Import and Load There are several links in that section to information on the Text/CSV Data Format. You will want to select that link to see what formats are supported.

I already looked at those. They only seem to support pre-defined fields. I want to be able to import custom fields as an Indicator like RSI or MACD but instead of calculating the indicator from available fields like Open , Close, etc., I want to import the indicator from a CSV file. For example, I might have a CSV file with the date and the Put Option volume for a stock and I would like to display that as a bar chart (like regular trading volume) in a panel below the stock price chart. |

To do something like what you are wanting would require you to program a custom study.

You definitely have to follow the required file formats supported. You can use the fields to contain whatever data you want. They will be drawn as a normal bar chart. There is a volume field.
