Post From: Previous OHLC-Variable Period Study not working?

as FF Trader suggested, it would be great if SC Support could give us a CME OHLC study that would reflect the official CME Group exchange numbers 100% accurately

Hi jsoviero - that is NOT what I am suggesting.

Sierra Chart Engineering said earlier and I quote:
The problem is the study was not designed to be used on chart bars with the same time frame as the period the study is set to. This is the underlying problem.

That is, if you use daily chart and want this study to plot the daily OHLC, it will not work. I was referring to the fact that within SC Historical Data service, many futures contracts have the smallest time frame available from the exchange as the daily OHLC - so inherently, one cannot use this study on the daily data from the exchange.

BTW, I believe SC Historical Data service do use the numbers from the exchange ...
