Post From: Sierra Chart Now Supports Building Custom Chart Bars Efficiently in ACSIL

I am working on a variant of the reversal bar chart, in which the new bar starts at the most recent high/low, instead of at the tick meeting the reversal size.

For example, if the reversal size is 10. The order flow increases from price 950 to 1000 at tick i. And then it decreases continually to 999, 998, ...., and then 990 at tick j. Existing reversal bar chart starts a new bar at tick j. What I want is to start the bar at tick i.

This requires ACSIL programming to go back to the most recent high (low), e.g. tick i, and to modify its status. Do you think this is technically possible?

Thanks a lot!

BTW, Sierra Chart is amazing, and it is the only platform I ever want to use.
