The problem is this is almost 99 percent likely to be triggered by a problem in your own source code.

The general procedure is to run Sierra Chart in Safe Mode as explained in help topic 17:
Sierra Chart Unexpectedly Shutting Down | Memory Errors | Unusual Software Problems | Exception Errors | Freezing of User Interface

And if you do not encounter the problem, that means the problem is in your custom DLL study.


Try one of the Sierra Chart trading systems and see if you have the same problem. You definitely should not.
