Time and Sales Window - Attach to Chartbook

Dear Support:

I've read the T&S help guide, and it appears the only way to duplicate a T&S window is to clone the chart.

Unfortunately, I already have a chartbook set up with various complicated (including formulas) charts, so copying a chart and using clones to recreate all the other charts isn't a viable option.

Is there a simple way I can ensure that all T&S windows for a chartbook look the same, regardless of which chart in said chartbook I last clicked on prior to opening the T&S window?

I'm fine with having to copy/paste/edit some config data, if necessary.

Thank you.

Would be AWESOME if we could attach T&S to a chart the same way we can with the trade window. This would ensure that we can determine which T&S goes with which chart, especially if you have differing settings amongst T&S windows/charts.

T&S under the attached trade window to chart would be great

Actually, I found an easy way of doing this... so I consider my original request self-solved.

Let's say I have two charts, A and B. A has the T&S layout that I'd like to graft onto B.

However, B has many studies (and formulas) and I don't want to have to redo the chart from scratch.

I can simply save all the studies from B as a study collection (with [x] Prompt to Remove Existing checked), delete (close) chart B, clone chart A (as the new B), and then import the study collection into it.

Once that's done, it doesn't matter which chart I clicked on before opening the T&S - because it will look exactly the same.

Thank You.

SavantTrader, good to hear you resolved your issue. But it would still be a dramatic UI improvement if we could dock the T&S window to a chart. I know Sierra Chart is much better than any other charting package out there (in this price range), however, ALL of the other platforms have the ability to dock their T&S windows. It is the most cumbersome task to keep up with a floating T&S window, especially if you need to move charts around or even view a chart full screen.

+2 on docking T&S window to its chart

+4 but only below the trade ticket window (without compromising real estate on the chart).

+1 would like this as well - my screen recording software will only capture what is attached to the chartbook window and thus does not capture other windows such as the time and sales.

+1 yes please. I have to minimize the T+S window every time I maximize a chart in my chart book. Then I have to go to my dock and bring it back up when I restore the chart.

It would be incredibly helpful to be able to dock the T&S to a chart. I have 4-5 detached chart windows displayed at any given time and it's often unclear if the active window's T&S is the one I can see.

Allowing the T&S to be connected to a chart like the trade window would be ideal.

maybe one of frozentundra's studies could be a starting point for implementing in ascil
