Post From: cumulative sum of study for the week!

Both of the studies work correctly. They are summing the defined item ("Input Data" or "Study and Subgraph to Reference") over the number of bars defined by "Length".

We just tested both studies to ensure they are working correctly and they are.

For instance, from your image, you have it set to sum the "Last" (or close) of every two bars. So it will take the most recent bar's Last price and add it to the previous bar's Last price to give you the result at the most recent bar. It then goes back 1 bar and adds that Last to the Last for the bar before it, and gives you the result for that bar. And so on.

What exactly is the item you want to sum up? If it is the Last Price of the bars, then you have that set correctly.

In looking at the data for TICK-NYSE, there are 961 1-minute bars in a standard day and 901 1-minute bars in a Friday. Therefore, to cover 1 rolling week, you would need to set the Length to be 4745 (4*961 + 901).

We have noted the request to change the summation study to allow for other time periods, but we can not say when we would get to any particular request.
