Greetings, Sierra Chart team. I ask for your help to solve two doubts that I have. 1) Which ACSIL code function can return me the brick size of the current chart? 2) Is there a reference study I can use to find out how I can change the brick size on a Renko chart? I'm not looking for a specific code, I'm just asking for a guide so I can study the documentation. I thank you for your answer and I remain attentive to it. |

The main references for ACSIL are the following (Variables and Functions): ACSIL Interface Members - Variables and Arrays https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/ACSIL_Members_Functions.html There other sections for more specific items like trading or using buttons. You will find all the sections for the ACSIL documentation at the following link: Table of Contents | (Advanced Custom Study/System Interface and Language (ACSIL)) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Thanks for the responses, they have been very helpful I have made this function for an automatic trading system: void ChangeBrick(SCStudyGraphRef sc, int CurrentBrick, int ChgBrick) { if (CurrentBrick != ChgBrick) { n_ACSIL::s_BarPeriod NewBarPeriod; NewBarPeriod.IntradayChartBarPeriodParameter1 = ChgBrick; //Set the bar period parameters. This will go into effect after the study function returns. sc.SetBarPeriodParameters(NewBarPeriod); } } The problem is that when I call it, it keeps resizing the brick over and over again like an infinite loop. Could you give me some reference or explanation of the problem? NOTE: The function is called from another code, which has in its structure several "return;" and i think this could be the cause of the problem |
