Hi i'm a long period user of sierra and have notice long time ago that there is an issue which i don't understand as for sierra's behavior and decided to check it out w/ you - may be i do not understand something or may be a bug firs - pls see that there are 2 files (1) Date-Range - where chart's data is defined in terms of date range (2) num-of-days - where chart's data is defined in terms of number of dates problem#1 - doesn't matter which method i use - the info that sierra presents (in the same figure) in field called: Date Range In File (yyyy-mm-dd) is incorrect problem#2 - in both cases the earlier date in the chart is Oct. 2009. meaning that that it is far before the [Date Range In File (yyyy-mm-dd) field] but much later in ref. w/ the expected duration set by the 2 criterion as appears in the images problem#3 - i set the number of days to load to chartbooks file is 9999 days (as can be seen at the file chart-setting-max-history.png. so why it doesn't affect the above info question#1 - i'm using the study VolumeByPrice and witnessing the above issues i'm wondering whether it actually loads the amount of data i set it to load (which is from Jan. 2007) question#2 - is there any hierarchy between the above data items set at Sierra and bottom line question(s): (1) number of days to load into file (Data/Trade Service setting) (2) dates to load to chart (chart setting) (3) study's dates setting (VolumeByPrice ... or any other study where applicable) tnx! |
