The way to chart a spread in Sierra Chart is to use our "Custom Calculated Symbols" option. Refer to the following:
Custom Calculated Symbols

But, this does not have a way to set the ratios "on the fly". You need to determine the ration up front and set it in the symbol settings.

If you are wanting to constantly adjust the spread based on the current ATR, then you would have to use the "Spreadsheet Formula - Bar" study to get what you want. Refer to the following:
