I am looking to create a custom spread using the ATR method i.e. Price Ratio using ATR Market A / ATR Market B; I also want ot be able to chart this spread. What is the best (most accurate way) of creating this, and is there a specific service package I need to be able to do this? |

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: Spreadsheet Formula (Bar) For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |
