Hi, I'm not a programmer, but I'm working remotely with someone that is. We have indicator data in an external csv file that is updated every 1-minute. We'd like to feed the data into SC as a custom study in real time when new data is added to the csv file (in the same way as a MACD indicator would update at the close of a 1-minute candle). We understand that SC can directly read csv data from other sources, but what are our options to import this indicator data? Could you point us to the areas in the documentation that would enable us to do this advanced custom study? Your guidance is appreciated. Thankyou Date Time Of Last Edit: 2023-07-07 11:48:20

You need to create an Advanced Custom Study: Advanced Custom Study Interface and Language (ACSIL) And simply read that data from the CSV file and place it into the Study Subgraphs. You can use the ACSIL file functions: sc.ReadFile() Also refer to: Working with ACSIL Arrays and Understanding Looping Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

You can read data every minute from a CSV file using this custom study: https://www.simplesystemtrading.com/autolevels/ . Then you can use the custom study subgraph data in the Study Subgraphs.
