Hello, I would like to ask whether it is possible to create a daily chart in your Sierra chart from my own data? Let's say the data is ready for excellence and I'd like to render it. For example: Date, Open, High, Low, Close, Volume, open interest Where do I find the format in which I want my data to be displayed? (Columns, column names, etc.) Thank you. Roman Roman |

Thank you for your answer. Unfortunately, my excel saves csv by placing a semicolon instead of a dots, and instead of dots in decimal places, we use commas. Do you know what program to use best to achieve your photo?

Hello, I have solved the problem with CSV. But Sierra does not see this file because it is looking for an update on the Web. I set up the NO SERVICE setting in the Data, but still try to download the data and the chart itself will not appear. Can you test if it works for you? Thank you Roman Pilisek |

The encoding of the file is not ANSI and that is the problem.

Thank you, in the end, I chose to copy the data into a Sierra Chart spreadsheet. I would like to take advantage of our communications and asked you if there is an option to see the OPEN INTEREST indicator for all futures contracts. For example, Gold is GC, and if I want to show Open Interest under the current contract, I'll only show up on this contract. But for a successful analysis, it is important to display the total Open INterest to GC for all open contract months. Thank you DP |
