You can use the Title Bar Name setting in Chart >> Chart Settings to set a name on the main title bar of Sierra Chart: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_ChartSettings.html#TitleBarName This name can be a company name.

I want it to populate on the chart as I click through my watchlist. I cant "set a name" as this should populate automatically. I trade stocks and there are hundreds of them that I scan through. I tend to think that Sierras mindset is too futures/forex oriented sometimes...

The name populates on the watchlist so we know that you already have the data. Just need to make that field available on the chart header

You should see it now on the title bar of the chart. Do you? So you want it on the Region Data Line of the chart? Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

I don't use title bars because they are a waste of space....However, if this is the only solution I can make it work

The Description field has been added to Global Settings >> Customize Chart Header but this has not yet been released. We expect a new release in about three days. We just need to finish with some other development first. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

Hi support, did this break? I added 'Description' to Selected header Fields under Global Settings >> Customize Chart Header but I do not see the company name for equities. Also the 'Name' column on my quoteboard is blank for all tickers. I just upgraded to version 1460 and got the same result. I'm connected to "SC Data - All Services". I haven't paid attention to company name before so I don't know if it was ever working for me. Do I need to enable something? Do I need to subscribe to a real time data feed or be connected to my broker for this to work? Thanks!

In the case of stocks, you need to use the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed for this: Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
