Is it possible to color-code various items in the Time and Sales Window such as bids and asks per price level (one color for best bid price, second color for second best bid price, etc)?

There is no ability to color the Best Bid, second Best Bid, etc. The coloring options that are available for the Time and Sales are defined starting at the following and going down through the item that start with "Time and Sales": Graphics Settings: Time and Sales: Bid Trades Background For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

So to clarify, there is no way to color-code the level 2 by price such as in Trading View? (please see attached pic). If not, is there a way to 3rd party customize the level 2 to do this? Or, is there some other way/study that can be used to color-code orders by price?

It is possible that a custom study could be created that would give you a new window to view the Time and Sales and then allow you to set it up as you want. This would be a fair amount of code, but it is possible. Refer to the following: ACSIL Programming Concepts: Use of Dialog Windows in Advanced Custom Studies https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartStudyAndSystemProgrammers.php For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Ok, thank you. Does SC still provide the "ASK BID Pulling and Stacking" study? I cannot find it in the register. If not, do you know of any custom P/S, 3rd party studies? |

There are Pulling/Stacking columns available. This is not a special study, you just need to setup the columns for these items for the DOM. Refer to the following: Global Trade Settings Windows: Customize Chart/Trade DOM Columns (Chart Specific) Global Trade Settings Windows: Bid Market Depth Pulling/Stacking - Left/Center/Right Aligned For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

Yes, I have the columns set up in the DOM, however, does SC have studies that can utilize this data so that the data can be displayed in other ways like in a line graph, etc? I know one vendor who made some custom SC studies using the data, but I cannot use their studies b/c they did not create them in an ARM version. Or is there a way, without creating a custom study, for current SC studies to tap into this data?

The only way to deal with the Pulling/Stacking data outside of the columns is with a custom study. We do not have anything built-in that does this. Refer to the following: ACSIL Interface Members - Functions: sc.GetBidMarketDepthStackPullValueAtPrice() https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SierraChartStudyAndSystemProgrammers.php You should also ask the developers that have the studies you are interested in if they will make an ARM version. They may be willing to do so. For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
