WRT Post #15:

I have conferred with Sierra Chart Engineering again, and a fix for this has been implemented. It will be in the next release.

Two new Inputs have been added: Reference Daily Chart for Data and Use Daily Chart for Settlement Only.

Suppose Chart #1 is going to have the Pivot Points study applied to it, specifically the Shadowtrader Pivot Points.

You will set your Session Times to 09:30:00 and 16:00:00 (SC Engineering actually recommends 15:59:59) so that the correct Highs and Lows are used.

You will then open Chart #1, a Daily chart with the same symbol.

Then apply the Pivot Points - Daily to Chart #1, and use the following Input Settings for that study on that chart.

* Daily Chart Number = 2
* Reference Daily Chart for Data = Yes
* Use Daily Chart for Settlement Only = Yes

Then the Pivot Points study will use the CME settlement value instead of the Close from the prior day.

I will include this information in the documentation once the new version is released.
