Can the [information displayed be reversed from the left to right of the screen to from the right to the left of the screen? I'm using 2 monitors; one for Sierra Chart and the other for my trading platform. The Trading DOM for my platform is on the right side of the screen. I'd like to have the leading information on Sierra Charts to be on the left side of the screen if possible. The reason is it's difficult to watch both screens since the information is a screen away. I suppose this is a weird request. thanks. Richard |

I asked for this a few months ago and was told it wasn't possible. I understand exactly why you want this, I've had a similar situation. Apparently it's not an easy thing to do. And since we're probably the only two traders on the planet who've asked for this feature, it's probably not worth Sierra's programming time :-) . For me, using several CurrentPriceLine studies, with the Value Label set to display on the Left Edge of my right-hand chart, has helped somewhat. I'm also currently experimenting with audio alerts, so that I'll hear when the key events I care about happen, no matter where my eyes happen to be at that moment. Merlin |

Thanks for your answer. I'll probably try a mid size HI Def flat screen; something around 38" or so. Display my trading platform and Sierra Charts on the same screen so they're displayed together. I've tried something like that already with a 32" Sharp flat screen TV. Problem is it works OK but contrast ratio on what I had wasn't high enough. Would need something with 100,000,000:1 or even higher contrast ratio or the script would be too faded to see. Also would need a really fast refresh rate; 4ms or faster. Then a fast computer with a good deal of RAM to handle multiple windows being opened at one time. I'm almost 77. Eyes not as good at seeing detail like the once were. I like to pick off the Market Makers when they make a stop run and looking back and forth on two screens wears out my eyes and I don't have a wide enough field of vision to see both.
