Hi SC, I have a .csv that shows a new Bid/Ask quote anytime the price and/or volume of the Best Bid and/or Best Ask changes. By anytime, I mean changes that happen both on and/or in between Trades, not just on Trades. This .CSV does not contain any Trade data. So I am wondering if it is possible to import it even though it has no Trade data? For instance, this link http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_TextCSVDataFormat.html#Formats says if it had Trade data I would import it in the following format. Date, Time, Unused, Ask, Bid, Close, Number of Trades, Bid Volume, Ask Volume Since it doesn't have Trade data, I am wondering if I could import it in this format Date, Time, Unused, Ask, Bid, Volume, Bid Volume, Ask Volume Thanks Date Time Of Last Edit: 2016-04-25 18:38:08

What you can do is set the Close to 0 when using: Date, Time, Unused, Ask, Bid, Close, Number of Trades, Bid Volume, Ask Volume And then use the Bid and Ask Prices study to see the Bid and Ask.

Thanks. Would I also set the "Number of Trades" to 0 when using the format you mentioned in post #2? |

No. That is not a valid setting. You cannot go lower than 1.
