Hi I am using Numbers Bars in SC but am trying to create space between each bar. Right now the bars for each period touch each other. Thanks for your help. |

I have looked at the instructions several times. I cannot find the answer. I do not want to increase the width of the bars. I WANT TO INCREASE THE SPACE AND CREATE A GAP BETWEEN BARS. Please be more specific as to where exactly I can find how to do this rather than just giving me a blanket answer. Thanks |

OK we misunderstood what you want because usually the question is users need to increase the chart bar spacing in order to fully see the Numbers Bars and the numbers within. There is no way to do what you want. This is the first time we have been requested this that we can remember. As standard procedure, we will always refer to documentation rather than restating documentation here which is a huge mistake because we cannot fully and accurately repeat what the documentation says. From our perspective your question was in the category of changing the Numbers Bars scale and it is important that you understand how to change both the horizontal and vertical scales.

Hi - it's Lee from emojitrading.com. The example being referred to here was created before Sierra Chart added support within the Numbers Bars study to have a candlestick outline with wicks forming the open/close market around the numbers. It was achieved by: 1. Having two charts within the chartbook with the same symbol and chart type/periodicity. One a regular candlestick chart, the other the numbers bars-based chart. 2. Using the Study/Price Overlay study on the numbers bars chart to overlay the Main Price Graph from the regular candlestick chart. 3. Within Graphics Settings (either for the chart or global) - setting the Candlestick Width (on the 'other' tab) to the desired narrower width, e.g. 50% Trust this helps. |

Set the Background Coloring Method for the Numbers Bars study: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/NumbersBars.php#BackgroundColoringMethods To None. You need to use one of the Text Coloring methods instead: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/NumbersBars.php#TextColoringMethods You then need to set the Open and Close Marker style: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/NumbersBars.php#Input_OpenAndCloseMarkerStyle To one of the candlestick styles: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/NumbersBars.php#Input_CandlestickBodyFilled Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Hi I already have the above settings employed. Just to check, if set to the recommended settings, the wick does not show?? Only the filled body of the Candlestick. Is there a way to show the wick as well? |

Set the Open and Close Marker Style Input to: Candlestick Outline. You will then see the candlestick wicks. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
