It is 100% definite, that the main chart data arrays will be changed to the double data type. This is a huge improvement throughout Sierra Chart this change and related changes. There are many related other variables where 4 byte Float types have been used and now they are double type.

These changes are absolutely critical for precision, and consistency and eliminating various problems related to floating-point error and imprecision.

We intend to be releasing this change possibly the weekend of September 26, 2026.

At that time custom studies will need to be recompiled.
