Ok i figured how this works and set it up on the main instance of sierra chart While trying this on the other instance of sierra chart this study did not work i did the simple test that is mentioned in the study document "The very first formula you should use to simply see how this study and how formulas work is =1 or =TRUE. This will color the bars or background in the chart and then you can go from there to a more advanced formula." When i did this the bar colors do not change. In the main instance when i did this test all bars colors had changed |

There is not a built-in tool that will give you this number. You could create a custom study to do this.
