New to Sierra charts (hello new friends!) but I'm trying to get a footprint setup going. I've searched a bit and did not see any immediate articles supporting why this might happen (I apologize if I missed it). But I've loaded up a binance btc usd perp chartbook, adding the numbers bars study, and that's about as far as I get before the chart just becomes unusable. I've attached an image of what the chart looks like. Up until this point, the software runs fine, but after loading that one study the software lags so badly I can't do anything. PC Specs: - i9 9900k - 32gb ddr5 ram - RTX 3080 (update as I'm typing this) I've loaded it on a few other charts, and it seems to run "smoother" but still is extremely laggy. Is this just part of the software? Or am I doing something wrong to cause this? Thanks! |

It's an issue with Bitcoin/Cryptocurrencies in general with the Numbers Bars study. There is just a much higher amount of data with those symbols that they eat up resources. And, if you get the data to display correctly, you will see a lot of repeated information making it fairly useless. If you use the Numbers Bars with a typical futures symbol (like ES) it will work properly for you. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Ah, so doesn't really work too well with crypto then. Mildly disappointing :/ Thanks for the response though! |
