Dear Support I have used SC for sometime now and I am quite comfortable with its features along with basic indicator programming however I am currently trying to add a scenario whereby I can scroll through a symbol list and edit the associated charts, linked to the symbol in the list. Firstly, I'm fairly certain that SC was not developed around this requirement but I'd be grateful for feedback or even a solution. 1) Ideal Scenario: Create symbol list - by selecting the symbol the appropriate chart/s are displayed and editing/analysis lines and text can be added. Then select the next symbol and the same can be done for this symbols chart, and/or charts. 2) What doesn't work is Quote board Quote board cannot be used as this simply changes the underlying data for the current symbols chart/s and thus all lines/text and analysis from the prior symbol selection are now resident and incorrectly applied to this selected symbol. Summary It would seem that the only solution is to create multiple chart-books that are switched within the desktop workspace, dependent upon the selected symbol As I said I'm fairly sure that SC was not designed to support this functionality but if I've missed the solution and it can be achieved without too much complexity and a huge slowing of the program I'd be grateful for your thoughts or even a possible solution. Many thanks Date Time Of Last Edit: 2017-06-16 11:31:07

Create symbol list - by selecting the symbol the appropriate chart/s are displayed and editing/analysis lines and text can be added. Then select the next symbol and the same can be done for this symbols chart, and/or charts. This is fully supported by using either the Associated Watch List or the Quote Board: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SwitchingSymbols.html#AssociatedSymbolList http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/GettingQuotes.html#ChangingSymbolOfChart Quote board cannot be used as this simply changes the underlying data for the current symbols chart/s and thus all lines/text and analysis from the prior symbol selection are now resident and incorrectly applied to this selected symbol. The solution to this is explained here: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/GettingQuotes.html#QuoteBoardLinkingToChartAndChartDrawings You need to uncheck this option: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/ChartSettings.html#ShowChartDrawingsForDifferentSymbol Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Thank you the quote board information allowed me to achieve the desired outcome, however, are you able to clarify the main difference between Associated Symbol list and Quote Board? I can see Quote has to download/update the chart data every time the symbol is changed, which makes sense so what I am hoping is that the Associated Symbol list keeps all charts/symbols in the list live/updated? AS ALWAYS MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP. |

If you want to have an Intraday chart updated whether the symbol has been used or not during the connection to the data feed, then add the symbol to the Intraday File Update List: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/GlobalSettingsMenu.html#IntradayFileUpdateList Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
