Hello, is it possible to get running second data from Sierra only for the last hour? See my attached settings where I can get only 1 day to download data and by the session times, there is only option from - to. Also I need running hour to get the second data, not the whole day. thanks |

One of the possible solution is to write a subgraph with ACSIL that copy the main graph, then set "Graph Draw Type" under Chart menu to "Blank" With that subgraph, you could decide whatever period you want to display, i.e. latest hour only. |

We are not really sure what you are wanting to do. If you want to see 1 second data for the current hour, then set your Bar Period to be 1 second. The entire chart will be in 1 second intervals, but once the data is loaded, it really does not matter. If you really do not want to see data older than the current hour, then you can use the "Color Bar Based on Alert Condition" to color the bars older than one hour to be the same as the background, so you will not be able to view them - they will still be loaded, and you can scroll through the time, but the bars will not be displayed. To do this, use an Alert Condition of the following: =BARTIME * 24 < FRACTIME(NOW()) * 24 - 1 Refer to the following: Color Bar Based on Alert Condition For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Many thanks for answer, but I need the latest hours second data to be exported with write bar study. That means, I want to read only small txt file, there is no need to get all the day. In this case of drawing chart data I think there will be whole day again. So is it possible to get smaller fraction of data in second intervals, not 1 day load? thanks |

The only way to do this would be to set the "Session Times" to the one hour you want. Refer to the following: Chart Session Times For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
