[User Discussion] - Turn off current forming candle

Hi I'm using 1 minute candles with transact. Obviously the current candle flickers (fills up and down) and moves as it forms. IS there a way to suspend or hide the current forming candle. I would like to view the candle after it has formed.

Thanks.

You can do it with the Spreadsheet Study study.
Put the attached in your Sierra Chart \Data folder, go the Analysis >> Current candle blank.

Limitation: it will only display historical candles equal to the Number of Rows setting in the spreadsheet study settings.

Just to be clear, while live trading or simulation trading, the current candle formation can not be turned off? Correct? Thanks

Yes that is correct but the user has provided a Spreadsheet Study to accomplish this.
