Post From: Chartbook Charts unnecessarily tagged for full recalculation issue?

Hi, I'm using V2229. I have a number of chartbooks open, each comprises 80 charts and includes a number of years data in each chart. Despite this, I have only one instance of Sierra running. As with your setup my studies also drill down through a number of charts to derive what I want to see/present. Initially, I had a lot of recalculation issues 'and crashing' that were literally making me climb the walls with frustration. However, after re-evaluating and reprogramming all of my studies to be more efficient, or for that matter just efficient full stop - I finally resolved all the issues. To be honest it was almost entirely due to poor programming on my part and to some degree possibly hardware. In summary, Sierra really is a very powerful platform and over more than 20 years and several platforms including Signal Writer, Omega 2000i, TradeStation, FT, eSignal, NT and others I've found nothing as flexible or fast. I do have a moan at Sierra Support/Engineering from time to time but to be honest they 'almost' always reply and the issues are either resolved in a few versions, or they point out it's most likely the result of my programming. Of course, like many, I always tend to point my finger elsewhere right up until I realise it is me and not Sierra after all. :-) There are not many platforms where the developers even bother to come back to you - irrespective of cost. I can appreciate your frustration especially as some of the custom studies which set out to provide what I think you are trying to achieve are not especially efficient. Only my thoughts of course. With the benefit of hindsight, if it was me in your position I'd update to the latest version, re-evaluate all of my study code and recompile to 64 Bit. Finally, I time everything that I change so that the changes can be evaluated and SC V2229 loads my studies, charts and data, significantly faster than any previous versions - i.e. those I had always considered to be more efficient as a result of being less complex. I hope the fact I am loading more charts, multiple chartbooks and some fairly complex chart overlays helps with your dilemma. Good luck! Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-03-15 16:15:27
