Hello, I have a custom spreadsheet study here in chart region 2. https://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1699821566692.png When I try to use study/price overlay on another chart to copy this study, the formatting is all weird like this. I cannot see the candle bodies/wicks. https://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1699821584701.png No matter what settings I change in the study/price overlay i cannot get the clone to match the source.

It looks like some of the settings for the Study/Price Overlay have been changed from the default. On the Study/Price Overlay, on the "Subgraphs" tab, check the setting at the top for "Graph Draw Type", this should be the same as what you have set in the Spreadsheet Study (it looks like it should be "Candlestick Bars"). If it is not the same, then change it to be the same and that should resolve your issue.

Hi John, Thanks for your response, I actually tried that and the settings doesn't change because I have use styles and widths from source study set to "yes". However, even when I switch that to No, it's still the same as before and it seems like the candle stick bars doesnt display properly as shown in my second screenshot.

Please see Chart #26 vs Chart #15 for 5minute Similar issue can be seen for Chart #23 vs Chart #2 for 1minute The candle sticks from the spreadsheet study looks perfect on Chart # 23 and # 26, and I don't want to have to add all the spreadsheet formulas to the execution chart, so I overlayed it to Charts #2 and #15. But on those charts, the candle sticks bodies are not configured properly. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2023-11-23 21:41:18

On the Study/Price Overlay you need to set the Input for "Draw Zeros" to "Yes". For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing
