I am using "Numbers Bars" Study for "SPY-NQTV" and I have made some changes to its default Study settings. How can I use same study for different symbol? When I try to open different ticker using File >> Find Symbol, I am not getting any studies - it is just plane with OHLC Bars. Thanks!

What you have stated is the correct functioning. You are opening a new chart, therefore it will not have any studies on it. If you want the same studies on a new chart, then you would need to duplicate the chart that is setup the way you want, and then modify the symbol. Refer to the following: Using Chart Templates: Duplicating Charts / Template Charts For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing

In the Numbers Bars study there is an Input for "Use Large Volume Number Formatting". Refer to the following: Numbers Bars: Use Large Volume Number Formatting For the Numbers Bars Calculated Values, set the "Value Format" to "Large Integer with Suffix". Refer to the following: Chart Studies: Settings and Inputs Tab >> Value Format As noted in the above, the shorthand only kicks in with values of 10,000 and above (or -10,000 and below).

As shown in attached pic. 1. What setting should I make to have the volume profile for the bar (Number Bars study) 2. For that particular candle, it shows the POC/Most transaction happened with the black box highlighted.

what setting should I make on Number Bars study for below settings? Instead of simply Bid and Ask, I can have total volume on left and Delta on right (Please refer attached pic) Total number of volume traded at these levels (either Buy or to sell) on Left Total delta on Right

1. The profile is a combination of the "Numbers Bars Background Type" and "Numbers Bars Background Coloring". For a standard volume profile (total volume), you would set the following: - Numbers Bars Background Type: Volume Profile - Numbers Bars Background Coloring: Based on Volume Percentage Refer to the information starting here: Numbers Bars: Numbers Bars Background Types 2. Refer to the following: Numbers Bars: Highlight Point Of Control In 3. That uses two columns. The first column is set to display the Volume and the second column has the Delta. When you are on the Settings page for the Numbers Bars you will notice that there are 4 total columns for which you can setup information - 3 "standard" columns and 1 pullback column.
