Hi, So I have studied this board and the SC documentation over the last month and I have pretty much everything sorted. Maybe I have missed something but on my current platform I bought an additional indicator from an independent programmer which enables me to hold shift and click anywhere on the chart for a long, or hold Alt and click anywhere for a short executing my defined ATM (bracket order) I know SC has a similar function if I add the chart DOM and extend it across, is there a way to set this up minus the DOM? I do not use the DOM at all and I don't want it on my screen. I trade a naked chart and the bars are the only thing I want to see on my screen. Also the separate add chart trader/remove chart trader buttons that I can add to the toolbar, is there a method to enable a toggle button to hide/unhide the chart trader? If that would be more efficient? Also I know I can set a button up to reset the charts scale and bring it back to the most current bar, is there a way to define a certain amount of bars to be displayed at this time. So when I click it there will be the most recent 150 bars on screen? Also I have my current platform set so when I left click the scale and slide down the bars squash and if I slide up they stretch, when I enable that function on SC it does the opposite. Is there a way to invert that? Thank you Date Time Of Last Edit: 2022-03-10 15:58:11

Hi, I'm not using any account currently but I will be using this account. I want to be versed in SC before I transition over to SC. Although my current platform causes me headaches on a daily basis I at least know how to deal with all its issues immediately. Switching platform/broker after such time is not an easy decision. I have today started the process of opening a new account at a different brokerage which will enable me to use SC, Denali and Teton Thanks |

I know SC has a similar function if I add the chart DOM and extend it across, is there a way to set this up minus the DOM? I do not use the DOM at all and I don't want it on my screen. I trade a naked chart and the bars are the only thing I want to see on my screen.
You have to have the Chart DOM displayed in order to be able to use the Ctrl/Alt to place orders across the chart. You can develop, or have developed something to do what you need for this. Also the separate add chart trader/remove chart trader buttons that I can add to the toolbar, is there a method to enable a toggle button to hide/unhide the chart trader? If that would be more efficient?
We assume you are referring to the Trade Window. There is not a single on/off button for that window as the On mechanism has two options - Attached or not-Attached to the window. Also I know I can set a button up to reset the charts scale and bring it back to the most current bar, is there a way to define a certain amount of bars to be displayed at this time. So when I click it there will be the most recent 150 bars on screen?
There is not a way to set a specific number of bars, but you can adjust the spacing to get close to the number of bars you want displayed. Once set, this will not change unless you specifically change it. Also I have my current platform set so when I left click the scale and slide down the bars squash and if I slide up they stretch, when I enable that function on SC it does the opposite. Is there a way to invert that?
There is not an option to invert the scaling. We just each do it differently. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
