hello, in the image below I have 2 studies on the chart. One is a footprint chart and the second is a VBP set to "bid volume and ask volume coloring method >> separate bid/ask volume coloring". I'd like to overlay the studies so that the VBP is on top of the footprint chart but I cant figure out how to do that. I've also attached the chartbook for clarification if needed. Thanks in advance.

You need to change the order of the studies in the Chart Studies window, such that the VbP is listed below the Numbers Bars. This sets the order in which the studies are drawn on the chart. Refer to the following: Chart Studies: Study Display Order For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing

that's what I thought as well but when I re-order the studies there's no change to the graph. I've tried both possibilities with the order.

On the VbP study you have the option Draw Study Underneath Main Price Graph enabled. Disable this option and you will then get what you are wanting. Refer to the following: Chart Studies: Settings and Inputs Tab >> Draw Study Underneath Main Price Graph (in the same Chart Region) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing
