Since I updated my sierrachart to new version, my Point and figure charts do not draw continous lines.
I configured as pnf bars on main chart and used the pnf study to configure ie es tick size .25 x 9 reversal.
When rolling back , to previous release, it works fine.

The "Point and Figure Study" is very old and should not be used. We would not be surprised if it is not working properly in a recent release.

You should use the built-in Point and Figure options for the Bar Period and the Graph Draw Type. Refer to the second paragraph in the following link:

I still can not configure pnf chart showing ES with 9 tick reversal. Please advise. The bar period value remains 10-1 after
i try to change it. Also I do not find the "ignore" field that is mentioned.

We are not seeing any issues with setting the Point and Figure parameters to a 1 tick box size with a 9 tick reversal.

We wonder if you are entering the parameters as "0.25-9". This would not work. You need to enter it as "1-9".

As to the "ignore" field, if you are referring to the Input for "Ignore Last Bar Until Completed" from the Point and Figure study, then this is not available with the built-in Point and Figure bar period.
