My aim is to use "Color Bar Based On Alert Condition" to filter and show high Bid/Ask sizes above/below the Ask & Bid lines respectively on chart. As the "Draw Style" I'm using "Value On High" for the Ask and "Value On Low" for the Bid The issue is that the filtered Ask/Bid sizes are shown on the bar's high and low which don't correspond to the actual Ask/Bid lines ("Current Bid Ask Lines") I tried to change the "Based On" value to the "Current Bid Ask Lines" study but text still shows on bar's high and low. Any possible solution? |

The "Color Bar Based on Alert Condition" does not use the "Based On" to determine the High and Low of the bar - that is done for the actual base graph that is in the chart. Therefore, if you really want to have the data displayed on the Bid/Ask Prices, then we have attached a Study Collection that gives a way to do this, showing this for the bid (you would have to replicate to do the Ask). Refer to the following for how to use a Study Collection: Study Collections: Using a Study Collection Provided by Sierra Chart Support Note that the way this is setup as the information is added to the current bar the old data still stays displayed. To get rid of this, you have to recalculate the chart. You can use the "Chart Calculation - Periodic" study to do this for you automatically.

Works as described, thank you. But why can't I find the "Base Graph" study on the traditional study list? |

The "Base Graph" is the "Main Price Graph". Base Graph is an internal term for this - sorry about that.
