This issue has been addressed several times by other users and myself too and I know you are fed up of discussing.
Still it is very important to my trading and its so far the only thing that really really is annoying in Sierra.

Its the values of the NYSE Tick. I know its calculated I know its unweighted and I know it does not need to 100% align to what the S&P is doing.
I know you checked your calculation several times and consider it more correct than even other platforms but the thing is that it does misguide one where TradeStation´s Tick gives you the perfect information. And in the end that is what counts, as a trader I dont care for the calculation I just want it to support my trading in the best way.

Pls have a look at yesterday´s morning ES + Sierra Tick and TS Tick. First of all already during the balance before the break down Sierra shows some mediocre -300/-400 values where as TS is already at -600. But ok, at least Sierra is completely below zero too, something that is often not the case when TS is. Secondly and much more important. If you look at the pullback from 2906 to 2912.75 or so. TS Tick stays completely below zero where as Sierra gets some new Tick highs on the day and much higher values than it showed on the down move. That is a completely different story shown and that right info would have been on a day like yesterday really important info.

As I assume you will not look into that again (but still I want to address and probably waste your time as it is really important) is there a possibility to include TS data into Sierra? I have seen it is possible in MultiCharts? I really love Sierra and I dont want to use a second software in addition or so. But that Tick is a real pain in ...

PS: the yellow line in the TS chart is the zero line on the tick.
