Hi, is there a built in function in sierra to delete a candle and its volume or just volume, or is it possible to code something that can delete the volume for a candle?

reason I ask the 8am prints on stocks throws all the volume indcators off like delta so id like to delete say the 8am candle volume to regain somewhat clean data.

I know you can select the candle and delte trade records and it does the job but you have to spend maybe 5 minutes at time doing this when you could just make a button to do it.

TIA!

The only way to do this is to adjust the session times to exclude, data from a particular time. Although this is going to exclude everything before the time as well.

For example, you could set the start time to 08:00:01. We do not know what the start time was previously.
