Post From: Volume by Price – auto start index input

As part of my project to maximise the degree of automation in a trading strategy I need to be able to directly feed start index into a Volume by Price study drawing a From Start Date-Time to End profile.
This could be based on output from another transmitting study which calculates the start index as sc.GetPersistentInt(1) (from either a swing point or mouse input).
The Volume by Price study would take input from the transmitting study and could pick up the index with sc.GetStudyPersistentIntFromChart then check for sc.GetPersistentInt(1)
!=0, grab the start index then feed it into Volume by Price study to replace the Start Date and Start Time inputs.
Fully aware that Sierra have a high workload and am only asking for your support as code for the Volume by Price study has not been released.
Please consider this request to add a few additional lines of code to the Volume by Price study. The need for manual input of date and time has brought my automation project to a halt.
Many thanks.
