Vertical Scaling on Main Price Graph Issue

I've graphed the "Add Additional Symbol" study with 2 moving averages to pane 2 on a chart. I want these same 2 moving averages to appear on the main price pane 1 in the exact position, relative to each other as they appear on pane 2. What happens is SC puts each MA on its own "Independent" scale which aligns them based on their tops and bottoms. Is there a Study that allows these MAs to share their own scale on the main Price pane so they line up exactly as they do on pane 2? See attached pic. Thank you very much! http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1521350839782.png

Yes you just need to set both of those Moving Averages to an Automatic Scale Range:

I am having same issue but when I apply the same studies from the lower pane to the main price pane using Automatic Scaling the studies disappear. Only when I apply Independent Scaling do they reappear but they only scale based on the extreme tops and bottoms as shown in both our attached screen shots. Is there a setting that enables the studies to appear on the price pane (same chart) in the exact same relative position as they appear in the lower pane?

The reason they disappear from Region 1 is because they are of a very different scale. Your study has values between -40.00 and 8.00, whereas your Main Price Graph is in the range of 3180.00 to 3480.00. Therefore, it is not possible to do what you are asking without multiplying the study to be in the same range as the Main Price Graph, but this gives essentially the same result as using the independent scaling.

The best option available is to use the Independent Scaling for the study along with the Left Side Scale. Refer to the information here:
Chart Settings: Use Left Side Scale (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Scale menu)

Okay, I've got the left Side Scale in place. Now, is it possible to have this set as a second "Automatic - Scaling Range" (with the same "RELATIVE SCALING" functionality for MULTIPLE STUDIES) in the SAME REGION as the Right Side "Automatic- Scaling Range"? I essentially need 2 separate "Automatic - Scaling Ranges" in the same chart region where I can assign multiple Studies to each. This is how Ninja Trader is currently set up by default. My objective is to spot clear divergences between a study (which may contain several moving averages and/or Regression Channels set to "Same as Region" of related Left Margin "Automatic - Scale Range") and the Right Margin "Automatic - Scale Range of price. Thank you!

Will there be a reply to my last post on 11.3.20?

Okay, then would it be possible in an upcoming version where the (3) "Moving Averages" study has the option to turn the "Scale Range" to "Same As Region" for the other 2 averages?

Not within the same study can this be done. Separate studies are needed.
