Post From: Possibility to use advance study language to compile mulpiple studies from multiple charts

Hi, Sierra Chart Team,

Could advanced language be used to write a custom study that does such a task as:

Loading hundreds of unique symbol with its own pre-defined study, extract data from each one of them and do a study with that data, compile the data all together into single manageable form?


The origin of my reason is I'm tired of doing hideous manual work, opening hundreds of chart with pre-built study setup, type its ticker symbol, and the most hideous part of it, hundreds of Study/Price Overlay study that was manually tweaked has to be made so they were pointed into each individual designated chart study, collecting data from these hundreds of charts, then write spreadsheet formula study to combine all of the Study/Price Overlay into one master summation study, it's just insane how much time have to be spent on clicking and typing. There should be smarter ways to do this.

Is there a "sum all study" study? Is there a ticker suite to load multiple symbols in a manageable manner?
How can I write a custom study that does things automatically, it loads symbols from the list I provide so I only need to make ticker list for once, such as "MSFT,AAPL,AMZN,FB,...", and it applies universal study on these symbols, collects the data, so I don't need to point and click with Study/PRice Overlay for hundreds of time?
Can spreadsheet study do such a task? Could spreadsheet loads multiple charts so I can do the calculation within one platform?

What is the advanced language variable that loads the ticker symbol? What is the grammar to import specific data from these symbols?

I got so many questions and things I want to learn.
