Post From: TopStep Trader, Sierra Charts software, and incomplete listing of studies

Hello Team SC,

I am using Sierra Charts as part of the TopStep Trader Trading Combine program. I am using the following version of SC's:

version 4.3.75.21.

This version of SC's feels like an "express" version for lack of a better term; it appears that the available studies in this version is no where near that of the "full" traditional version. This particular version has studies lumped into four headings: Overlay, Price and Volume, Money Flow, and Oscillator.

Specifically, I wanted in use Murray Math Lines for my trading processes, and though its available in other versions, it does not appear on the listing of studies to be used with this one. Additionally, I attempted to create/import the xml language of this study, from a "full version" (from the Studies3.cpp (?) file), to use. I could not get it to work; there appears to be some files that the studies are referring to within the folder (assuming its code). Thought maybe the structure was related to the account limitations the combine places on traders within the program.

When I spoke with CTS, they referred me to you with the software specific questions, even though I am pretty certain I downloaded this version from the CTS website (and assumed that they may have some control over its structure/operations).

So, how does someone get the other studies that I know have been developed and work fine, to appear on the list for version 4.3.75.21 such that they can be activated and used in our market trading approach?

Thanks!
