How to overlay the latest bar of a Study or other price chart

I would like to be able to manually place only the latest bar of a study subgraph onto a user-specified place in the current chart window. It would appear as a constantly-updating 'meter' overwriting itself. I would like to specify the X and Y coordinates for it (as can be done with the Text Display for Study). I've tried all the usual Reference and Overlay studies and would appreciate some assist. TIA

+1 Even I have been wanting to do this for a long time and gave up. Displaying of just the most current bar (without price overlay from another chart would be great!) Example: MTF Dashboard style showing single bar for Monthly/Weekly/Daily/H4/H1/M30/M15/M5/M1 on a sub-second primary chart. |

What is wrong with the "Text Display for Study" or "Text Display for Study from Chart" studies? From what you describe these exactly meet your needs. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

I don’t think the Text study will work. Imagine displaying 1 bar of say, a cumulative Delta study at any location on the price chart, and control the number of recent bars shown.

You could try creating a separate chart with the desired study set to "show as main price graph", detatch the chart and set it to "always on top". Re-size it to show the number of bars you want to see, and move it to your desired location. Maybe park it off in the corner or something if you don't want it blocking other things. You'll likely want to hide the price and time scales, probably not show any region data lines, and maybe link the scroll position with your main chart. Not ideal but depending on your layout it might work for you. |

Here's an example of a "dashboard" that is quite easily done in MT4/5 (everything in a single chart).... https://www.forexfactory.com/attachment/image/1837727?d=1453614084
