Hello, SC support I am looking to replicate a Renko box size assignment method found in tradingview platforms known as "Percentage LTP" (Last Traded Price). In this method, the Renko brick size is dynamically calculated as a percentage of the instrument's current price (e.g., 0.5% of the current price) rather than a fixed tick value. Does Sierra Chart have a native "Percentage of Price" setting within the Renko bar period types? If not, what is the recommended way to achieve this? Can this be done via a Spreadsheet Study to dynamically update the "Bar Size (in ticks)" , or would this require a custom ACSIL tool? Are there any existing studies that can be configured to use price percentage instead of ATR or fixed ticks? Thank you for your help. |
