Hello, I was using sierra for futures and it was just superior. I started trading stocks and have few questions/requests. Quoteboard This is basically a watchlist. Would be awesome to have more functionalities. Is it possible to have relative/average volume as a column? Is there a workaround or can this be added? You added a shortcuts for moving symbols in symbol list. Would be really awesome to have it also in quoteboard There is a bug, when symbols shift because Im sorting list according to something and my selected (highlighted) symbol didnt change. Meaning highlighted state stayed at same row even though symbol sorting changed. Alerts I love how you can add alert from chart and from quoteboard. Go to chart doesnt seems to work as I think it should. I have X charts in chartbook and clicking on symbol in quoteboard changes symbol on these charts. In alert manager log "go to chart" doesnt change symbol on my charts. Is this possible? Would be so awesome to have this option also in alert popup. No I have to read whole popup and find symbol that got alerted manually and then click on that symbol in quoteboard. News Newsfeed would be so helpful! Heatmap With denali I was able to create heatmap for futures. I know you are planning to introduce lvl2 for equities. Will heatmap be possible then for stocks as well? Thank you for you help and answers. I think SC is superior in futures. Its very close to be superior for stocks as well. Regards, Jakub

Is it possible to have relative/average volume as a column? Is there a workaround or can this be added? Although Relative/Average Volume is not an option in the Quote Board, we want to make sure you are aware of the different fields that can be added to the Quote Board through Settings >> Set Fields. Refer to the following: Getting Quotes: Setting Fields to Display The Relative/Average Volume can be found using the Relative Volume study, or the Numbers Bars Calculated Values studies. This is an item that could then be viewed in the Study Summary. Refer to the following: Study Summary Window You added a shortcuts for moving symbols in symbol list. Would be really awesome to have it also in quoteboard We will add this to our list of requests, but due to other options (like sorting) this may not be something that is easily done. There is the following capability for moving symbols on the list: Getting Quotes: Move Symbol There is a bug, when symbols shift because Im sorting list according to something and my selected (highlighted) symbol didnt change. Meaning highlighted state stayed at same row even though symbol sorting changed. We are not able to reproduce this. Can you give us more specific steps to reproduce? Go to chart doesnt seems to work as I think it should. I have X charts in chartbook and clicking on symbol in quoteboard changes symbol on these charts. In alert manager log "go to chart" doesnt change symbol on my charts. Is this possible? There is no "Go to Chart" option in the Quote Board. The reason the symbol changes in the charts when you select an symbol in the Quote Board is because you have the linking setup to do this. Refer to the following regarding linking on the Quote Board: Getting Quotes: Changing Symbol of a Chart or Trade DOM Going to a chart from the Quote Board is difficult, as a symbol is not associated with a specific chart. So if you have multiple charts open for the same symbol, which chart would open? With denali I was able to create heatmap for futures. I know you are planning to introduce lvl2 for equities. Will heatmap be possible then for stocks as well? Yes. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing

The Relative/Average Volume can be found using the Relative Volume study, or the Numbers Bars Calculated Values studies. This is an item that could then be viewed in the Study Summary. Refer to the following: Study Summary Window Thanks for info. I was just wondering if I can add average/relative volume to quoteboard for sorting purposes. Getting Quotes: Move Symbol This is excellent! Unfortunately I cant find QuoteBoard Keyboard Shortcuts We are not able to reproduce this. Can you give us more specific steps to reproduce? I have X symbols in quoteboard and Im sorting them by highest volume. Symbol S is on first place and Im highlighting it. Volume changes and now symbol S is no longer on first place, but its second. But highlighted row is still the first one instead of second which is my symbol which Im watching. There is no "Go to Chart" option in the Quote Board. The reason the symbol changes in the charts when you select an symbol in the Quote Board is because you have the linking setup to do this. Refer to the following regarding linking on the Quote Board: Sorry I meant "go to chart" in alert manager log. But yeah I see your point with which chart would open. In that case what would be great is having option to change linked symbol on chart to the one that had alert. Having it in alert popup can save a lot of time Yes. Super! Any estimations when will be this added? I know its not easy. Thank you

Thanks for info. I was just wondering if I can add average/relative volume to quoteboard for sorting purposes. No, this not supported. This is excellent! Unfortunately I cant find QuoteBoard Keyboard Shortcuts Select Global Settings >> Customize Keyboard Shortcuts then scroll the options on the left all the way to the bottom to see the section for Quoteboard Keyboard Shortcuts. I have X symbols in quoteboard and Im sorting them by highest volume. Symbol S is on first place and Im highlighting it. Volume changes and now symbol S is no longer on first place, but its second. But highlighted row is still the first one instead of second which is my symbol which Im watching. Thanks for the additional information, although we are still not able to see this ourselves. The highlighting moves with the symbol that was highlighted. Although we are doing this with a very simple quote board of just 3 symbols. Super! Any estimations when will be this added? I know its not easy.[/quote It is still being worked on.

No, this not supported. Thanks for info. I assume there is no workaround with ACSIL Select Global Settings >> Customize Keyboard Shortcuts then scroll the options on the left all the way to the bottom to see the section for Quoteboard Keyboard Shortcuts. Unfortunately I cant be able to find it. Im using sierra version 2335 Last option I have is "Build Advanced Custom Studies DLL Keyboard Shortcuts" Thanks for the additional information, although we are still not able to see this ourselves. The highlighting moves with the symbol that was highlighted. Although we are doing this with a very simple quote board of just 3 symbols. Im using around 15 symbols with 2 labels. Will try it with less to confirm if its still happening It is still being worked on. Any new announcements will be in the following thread: Thank you. I would like to ask about having option to change linked symbol from alert popup. Is this something that can be added or its totally not an option. This would really help trading equities. Thanks again for info Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-12-17 19:50:03

Thanks for info. I assume there is no workaround with ACSIL There is not a workaround for this, as there is no capability to add special fields to the Quote Board through ACSIL (or any other method). Unfortunately I cant be able to find it. Im using sierra version 2335 Last option I have is "Build Advanced Custom Studies DLL Keyboard Shortcuts" Our apologies, we did not realize this was a new feature that has not been released yet. It will be in the next Pre-Release (2336). I would like to ask about having option to change linked symbol from alert popup. Is this something that can be added or its totally not an option. This would really help trading equities. We can't say that it would never happen, but it is definitely not something we can get to anytime soon.

Hey John Regarding quoteboard issue Im having. I was able to make a screenshots during today's session open. Maybe it will help you to replicate it. So before open I switched to LCID which was on 4th place on quoteboard (5th if we want to count label on first row) After open there was shift in volume and because Im sorting symbols in quoteboard from highest volume to lowest, LCID jumped to 5th place (6th with label) I did not click anywhere, but you can see that highlighted position in quoteboard stayed at 4th place which is now NIO Hopefully this can help

Regarding post #8, that is just how the functionality works when sorting. Oh so it is wanted behavior. I would like to ask then if it would be possible to add highlighting functionality, where symbol would stay highlighted during sorting? Thank you
