Is this feature removed from new version? Or it's only removed for SC Futures Order Routing Service?

No, it has not been removed.

Perhaps if you are having a problem with it, it might relate to the new symbol settings changes. Check the relevant settings in Global Settings >> Symbol Settings. This is going to be most likely the reason for the problem.

No, it has not been removed.

I can't find the "New" button to create a custom symbol in the symbol list at Global Settings >> Symbol Settings.

If the feature has not been removed, what exactly should I do to add a custom calculated symbol now? The instructions at Custom Calculated Symbols: Instructions don't seem to work anymore.

Thanks

Any update on this issue? The instructions and screenshots do not match the current Symbol Settings dialog. I am attempting to create a custom derived symbol, and according to the current instructions:
"Enable the Uses Formula Operators option. This is absolutely essential to have this option enabled."
There is no "advanced" tab, nor could I find I any item within the inputs in the dialog to handle this.

Thanks,
Jeff

You need to update to the latest version of Sierra Chart to add a new symbol to the Symbol Settings. Refer to:
Software Download: Fast Update

The documentation still has to be updated but it should be clear what to do. If you need further help please wait for the documentation updates. Just allow about a week.
