I recently updated my version of Sierra and the Reward / Risk Tool will no longer go negative, meaning the target anchor will not pass the entry anchor toward the stop anchor showing a negative R. Is there something I can do to change that so it will go negative again? Thank you.

This is deliberate. Why would you want to use a negative Target? It does not make sense to us. But maybe we do not understand the particular need. There is also this new setting in the configuration: Reward/Risk Config | Config #1 >> Settings >> Order of Points : {"Stop Price, Entry Price, Target Price (Default)", "Entry Price, Target Price, Stop Price", "Entry Price, Stop Price, Target Price", "Target Price, Entry Price, Stop Price"} Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

I get that it sounds odd. It's how I quickly and accurately measured risk for potentially partial losers that don't run all the way to my stop. It really made things easy for me rather than now having to break out the Chart Calculator tool and/or then my calculator to do it manually.

There is a reason why this was done. We have to review the reason again. Maybe we can add an option to enable a negative calculation.
