Is it possible to change the entire candlestick shading based on delta in this tickchart format? https://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1724782844841.png Thank you. |

Use the "Color Bar Based on Alert Condition" to do this. Refer to the following: Color Bar Based on Alert Condition You can get the delta from various locations, but the simplest is the Numbers Bars Calculated Values. Refer to the following: Numbers Bars: Displaying Numeric Information Below Numbers Bars For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Thank you, would this apply a gradient to the bars as well? - Meaning different colors depending on the range threshold of delta etc. Or do you need multiple Colo Bar Based studies for each color?

The Color Bar Based on Alert Condition does not have an ability to apply a gradient. You would need multiple copies of the "Color Bar Based on Alert Condition" study to get the range of colors you want.

Oof, OK that's what I was trying to accomplish. It would be great if Sierra would reformulate that Study to rebase on multiple outputs from the underlying study. Thank you for clarifying

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong - I can't get the bars to change colors after reading the documentation. For Color Bar Based on Alert -based on Numbers Bars Calculated Value, chart region 1 (as the 1000 tick candles) -Value Format set to Inherited; Use Input Data (4); ID4.SG1 (15) -Alert condition "= ID4.SG1 >= 100" -"Evaluate on Bar Close" check or uncheck doesn't make a difference From the numbers bars it is clear there are values over 100, candles remain the same default colors. What am I missing? https://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1725052638511.png Date Time Of Last Edit: 2024-08-30 21:25:10

Based On needs to be set to <Main Price Graph>. For the Color Bar Based on Alert Condition the "Based On" needs to be the item that is going to be colored.
