Please see attached screenshot

From a 15-minute intra-day chart, on my DOM i am trying to overlay:

1) prior day Highs/Low - study used on 15-min chart = Daily OHLC
2) overnight highs/low - study used on 15-min chart = High/Low for time period

I added a label column on the DOM so that just the labels are displayed for above

I used Study/Price Overlay and successfully overlay the prior day high/low on the DOM but the overnight high/low is not showing up on the DOM

Keep in mind that a Trading DOM does not have the same concept of bars as a regular chart. Only data that is displayed at the most recent bar will be visible in the Trading DOM. Since the "Overnight" is not current, it is not displaying.

But you can work around this by setting the Input on the "Study/Price Overlay" for "Match Source Bars to Destination Bars" to "No". Refer to the following:
Study/Price Overlay Study: Match Source Bars to Destination Bars

Thank you providing this.

I am looking for a study that can display High/Low on the 15-minute chart for:

1) current/on-going week - What study is suited for this?
2) completed week - For this, i used Study = Period OHLC-Variable Period
3) completed month - For this, i used Study = Period OHLC-Variable Period


for example

- Week High/Low - For current week last week to consider will be Feb 24-28
- Month High/Low - For current month last month would be February

Use the "Period OHLC - Variable Period" for the current period. Set the Input for "Use Current Period" to "Yes" in this case.

Thank you

My system:
- Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8809G CPU @ 3.10GHz 3.10 GHz
- RAM: 32 GB
- Sierra chart installed on on separate m.2-nvme SSD drive

Have 3-4 doms up in chartbook along with 2 15-minute charts that are predominantly used to mark levels and overlaid on 2 doms

Will the speed of DOM be slow? if so what will be a more efficient setup that delivers what is needed without affecting speed

We cannot answer questions like this. There are simply too many variables.

You would need to try it and see for yourself.

The following page has every piece of information we know of for improving performance:
High CPU Usage | Inactive User Interface | Poor Performance | Long Time to Load Chart Data | Charts Reloading Often
