Log of Changes and Improvements to Sierra Chart

This list contains major items of development, and changes and additions which users need to be informed about.

This is not a comprehensive changes and additions log. And it should never be relied upon for such. It only represents a very small percentage of the actual development being performed every day. The vast majority of development is not documented here. Or receives, one small comment after it is all complete. There are not version notes for each version. The main Sierra Chart documentation is updated as needed relating to the changes and additions.

The maintenance of this page has mostly been abandoned by Sierra Chart development for many years due to the difficulty of maintaining it and because users can be incorrectly misled by or misinterpret notes that are made here. This does not change, the development of Sierra Chart which is very active every day and new releases are made nearly weekly or several times a week. The Sierra Chart project is still very active, with extensive development and it remains a very high quality software in the world. The engineering is at the very top of the world.

  • 702 Release Date: 2011-04-29

    [Link] - [Top]
    • Added a new Renko Chart study named Renko Chart Enhanced. This is an enhanced version of the existing Renko Chart study that includes many user requested enhancements.
    • Added the ability to fully reset the Global Symbol Settings to defaults. Select Global Settings >> Symbol Settings. Press the Full Reset button and press OK. This will delete all existing Global Symbol Settings and download new settings for the currently selected Data or Trading service. The related settings you already have set on existing charts, will not be affected by this. If you wish to update a particular chart to the standard default settings for a symbol, then go to the chart and select Chart >> Chart Settings and press the Apply Global Symbol Settings button.
    • On the ChartDOM, when the order quantities for a price exceed 1000, they are abbreviated with K. So the ChartDOM does not become too wide.
    • The Download Historical Daily Chart Data and Cancel Download commands have been removed from the File menu. There is no longer a reason to download historical daily chart data for all of your chart data files at once. Support for this has been discontinued. When you open a Historical chart, the Historical Daily data will be downloaded at that time for that symbol if necessary. Also, when using the Chart >> Associated Symbol List, as you iterate through that symbol list either manually or as part of a Scan, historical data will be downloaded even if you do not already have a data file for a particular symbol. When scanning through all of your data files, historical data will be downloaded for each one if necessary during the Scan. If for some reason you want to update a large group of your data files at once, then what you need to do is add those symbols to a Associated Symbol List for a chart and then initiate a Scan on that chart based on the Associated Symbol List. The download will be done for all of the symbols in the list.
    • Continued improvements to the File >> Find Symbol feature and Global Settings >> Symbol Settings.
    • Additional improvements to the new Compact Tool Values Window. This can be enabled and disabled with Window >> Show Compact Tool Values Window. This window automatically displays when you use a tool or the Chart Values tool. The main improvement is that it is a single window for all charts that can be moved anywhere on your desktop.
    • Various low-level improvements.

  • 700 Release Date: 2011-04-26

    • We have developed a new Compact Tool Values Window which is intended to replace the OHLC and tool data displayed in the status bar. The status bar did not display information clearly as could be and within the context of individual charts. The longer-term plan is to remove the Status Bar and to eliminate dependency on it. The data feed status and the currently selected tool, will be relocated. This version includes various updates to the Compact Tool Values Window.

      For information about the Compact Tool Values window, refer to the Viewing Chart and Tool Data section. Here is an Example. The new Compact Tool Values window is very easily grabbed and moved anywhere on the chart.

      Based on feedback some users have not become completely accustomed to the new Compact Tool Values window and all of the functionality available with that window, the Tool Values Window and the Chart Values tool which is more than suitable as a replacement. Therefore, we have temporarily restored the Chart Values data to the status bar for now.

      You can customize what is displayed by selecting Chart >> Chart Settings >> Advanced Settings >> Settings. You can uncheck the fields you do not want.
    • Various low-level improvements.

  • 698 Release Date: 2011-04-21

    [Link] - [Top]
    • Corrected a problem with Trading Technologies (TT) Position Data processing where if there was no market data subscription for a symbol, the position data was being ignored. This has now been resolved. This would occur if you did not have a chart or Trading DOM open for the symbol at the time position data was received for that symbol.
    • Corrected a closed trade event processing issue with the FXCM Trading service, that occurred under certain conditions.
    • Various low-level improvements.

  • 697 Release Date: 2011-04-20

    [Link] - [Top]
    • Continued development of the new File >> Find Symbol window and General Settings >> Global Symbol Settings window.
    • Continued development of the new File >> Find Symbol window and General Settings >> Global Symbol Settings window.
    • Resolved an issue with the Right Side Fill Space from a recent prerelease, where it would not always be maintained when it is locked and you scroll the chart.
    • Resolved some minor issues with the Right Side Fill Space when using the Hand tool and when scrolling charts and the scroll position is linked between multiple charts.
    • Solved an issue with the FXCM Trading service integration with the formatting of Symbols that caused exception messages with trading.
    • Various low-level improvements.

  • 692 Release Date: 2011-04-14

    [Link] - [Top]
    • Continued development of the new File >> Find Symbol window and General Settings >> Global Symbol Settings window.
    • Added a Strict Evaluate on Bar Close input to the Spreadsheet System for Trading study. When this is set to Yes, then only at the moment when a bar closes when a new bar is added to the chart, will an evaluation of your Spreadsheet formulas from the Buy/Sell Entry/Exit columns be evaluated for TRUE conditions. This might be helpful for some types of automated trading.
    • Solved an issue with FXCM Trading where Attached Orders would not become active from the Pending Child state when the parent order fills.
    • Various low-level improvements.

  • 691 Release Date: 2011-04-9

    [Link] - [Top]
    • Corrected a problem where orders could not be submitted when using a mix of upper and lowercase characters for a Symbol when using the Open E Cry Trading service. Added support for Account Balance when using the Open E Cry Trading service. The account balance is displayed on the Trade >> Trade Positions window. The Account Balance is based on the Net Liquidating Value for your account. Corrected an issue when using the Open E Cry service where the Symbol for Trade Service positions may have included additional data rather than only the symbol. This would affect synchronization with the Internal Position data and also the display of the Trade Service position on charts due to symbol differences.
    • Added new inputs to the Pivot Points-Daily study to support manual entry of the previous days High, Low, and Close values and the current days Open value. When these are used, the Pivot Points lines for the latest day will be based upon these manually entered values rather than internally determined by Sierra Chart.
    • If there is an error with a Simple Alert formula, a more detailed message about the error will be added to the Window >> Show/Hide Alerts Log. In the past, only when a formula was considered completely invalid, would an error message display in the log. Now any type of error with a particular Simple Alert formula, will cause a message to display in the log with more information about it.

  • 690 Release Date: 2011-04-6

    • Added the following new variables to the ACSIL: SupportTradingScaleIn, SupportTradingScaleOut.

    [Link] - [Top]
    • When performing a scan, Chart >> Start Scan, it is no longer necessary in the case of Historical daily charts to perform a download of data for all Historical Daily data files by using File >> Download Historical Daily Chart Data, ahead of time or have Intraday charts for the Intraday data symbols you are scanning, already open. When the symbol of the chart is changed during the scan, a historical data download will be performed if necessary and will be allowed to complete before the scan goes on to the next symbol, either in the data folder or in the Associated Symbols List.
    • Corrected a problem where sometimes order fills when using the FXCM Trading service are not always processed and update the Internal Position. This issue is apparently due to changes with the timing of FXCM order updates and issues with trade reporting from their server. The Service Position display was not affected.
    • Solved some price formatting issues for Bonds and Grains when using the PFG Best trading service. Solved an issue where canceled orders which resulted from an order modification would update the latest associated order during an update of all orders, they are now ignored.
    • Implemented an improved Global Symbol Settings window. This can be opened with Global Settings >> Symbol Settings. The symbols in this window will be used by an updated Find Symbol window to be released in the next version.
    • Worked around an issue with Interactive Brokers TWS where it does not send the latest hour of historical data when using certain time zones. You will now get this latest hour of historical data with this version.

    • Added a new Input type to the Advanced Custom Study Interface and Language which allows you to create your own custom selectable list of options that can be selected by the user of the study. The new functions are: sc.Input[n].SetCustomStrings("Zero;One;Two;Three"), sc.Input[n].SetCustomStringIndex(0), sc.Input[n].GetIndex(). The list of text strings are mapped to a zero-based index.
    • Various low-level improvements.

    • Various low-level improvements.

  • 681 Release Date: 2011-03-04

    [Link] - [Top]
    • Improved the internal calculations used for trading positions Average Price and Open and Closed Profit/Loss. This considers the actual fill price of each individual fill. One thing to keep in mind is that we use an averaging method in the calculations. This gives a precise end result. However, the Average Price of the position is not necessarily always going to be to the exact Tick Size.
    • Corrected a problem with the integration to the Trading Technologies platform service where Trailing Stop orders and Move to Breakeven Stop orders would not display the new price they were adjusted to.

    • Increased the number of study inputs.
    • There are now 2 Send Attached Orders order types. One sends the defined Attached Orders relative to the specified price.

    • Filtered out trade fill events with the FXCM Trading service that are not the result of real-time fills. This was causing an incorrect Internal Position when these events occurred. In our testing, these events which were not the result of real-time fills, did not commonly occur.

Sierra Chart is designed to work on an account that does not support hedging. There are some improvements that need to be made and additional testing that needs to be done. However, at this time the trading integration works reasonably well based on our testing. We may also require that you be assigned to our referral account at some point in the future, to be able to use this service. This may also allow you to receive free Sierra Chart usage time. For complete information and the instructions to use the FXCM Trading service with Sierra Chart, refer to the FXCM Trading Service page.

    • The Price Display Format, the Multiplier, and the Currency Value per Tick set in the Global Symbol Settings are now applied to all price values in the following Windows: Positions Window, Trade Orders Window, Trade Activity Log Window. This is especially important when using TT. Any changes you make to the Global Symbol Settings will be applied to those windows. In the case of the Trade Activity Log, if you make changes to Global Symbol Settings, press the Fill Activity/Order Activity button to refresh the list with the changes.
    • The Range Bar setting in Sierra Chart now is specified in Ticks rather than the actual range value. Therefore, if your Tick Size is .25 and you want a range of 1, you would enter 4 in Chart >> Chart Settings >> Range in Ticks .

      For existing Chartbooks the existing Range Bar Value is translated to the new Range in Ticks setting. However, this depends upon a correct Tick Size in Chart >> Chart Settings having been set. If this is not set correctly, then the translated value which is set in Range in Ticks will be incorrect. In this case, your Range Bar chart will not display correctly. You will need to go to Chart >> Chart Settings on the menu and properly set the Range in Ticks and the Tick Size to the appropriate values.
    • Various low-level improvements.

  • 655 Release Date: 2010-12-16

    • The .Worksheet Study/System/Alert has been separated into two separate studies now. The names are: Spreadsheet Study and Spreadsheet System/Alert. They are no longer listed at the top of the Studies Available list. They are now listed in the W section in the list. The 1=Study 2=System/Alert input is no longer available in either of these new studies. The Spreadsheet Study is for creating studies which do not function as trading systems or alerts. The Spreadsheet System/Alert study is for creating studies which do function as trading systems or alerts. Existing instances of the .Worksheet Study/System/Alert study still will work as previously. No changes are necessary. However, if you have set 1=Study 2=System/Alert to 1, then the study will function as a normal study and not as a trading system or alert. If you have set 1=Study 2=System/Alert to 2, then the study will function as a trading system or alert and cannot be changed.

    • Added support for trading Scaling In functionality. This can be enabled by selecting Scale In Support on the Settings (S) menu on the Trade Window.
