Was trying to create a spread chart using Difference Single Bar Study, for some reason not displaying. Here is picture of my settings. Main chart is ZWK22,
chart #2 July.

That study is outdated, and it may not work properly. Use this method instead:
Custom Calculated Symbols
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:

Tried to create Custom Symbol- but does not pull up. Did mark use formula operators yes. Here are the 2 symbols (charts) that I am trying to create spread between, and sent copy of settings.

I chart spreads too. But, only use the studies or custom symbols when the Exchange symbols are not available. Why not use the Exchange Traded Symbol for that spread? It should be available to you. Here's what I get for ZWK22-ZWN22.

Thanks for the response SpearChucker, much appreciated. Did try to chart the Exchange Traded Symbol, but tells me not found for current service.
Thought if I were getting CBOT grains that I should be able to get the spreads.

Did you type that in yourself, or did you use the Get Spreads button and chose from the list? My symbol is different than the one you posted (used button & list). Here's my symbol - ZWK22-ZWN22.ZW.FUT_SPREAD.CBOT By the way, I'm using SC's Denali data. So, that could be the difference, if you're not.

Ok, the symbol's probably Trade Service dependent, too. I'm using SC/TT Futures Order Routing.
