Post From: study collection doesn't work

Your problem is that you are using a Study/Price Overlay with a Study Collection. The Study/Price Overlay doesn't keep the actual chart information that it was referencing - it just keeps a chart number. So if you open a different chartbook and apply that Study Collection that contains the Study/Price Overlay, it is going to pull the data from the chart that has the same number - or if there is not one, give you nothing.

Here is an example. Chartbook 1 has charts 1, 2, and 3 in it with symbols a, b and c (1-a, 2-b, 3-c). You use a Study/Price Overlay to overlay the bars from chart 1 (symbol a) to chart 3 (symbol c and a).

When you go to a new chartbook, which has charts 1, 2, and 3 in it with symbols d, e, and f, when you use the Study Collection it is going to place the information for symbol d into chart 3. Or, if you did not have a chart #1, then you would not get anything.

Basically, To do what you want, you would have to be rather pedantic and ensure that the charts you want are in the same numbers across chartbooks.
