[User Discussion] - How do I Show Profiles on Subgraphs?

yes. You can make the resolution as high as you like. Use the setting % bar increment of range. The lower the setting the higher the resolution/the smaller the bar increment.

You can set it to as low as 0.01%. However due to certain limitations in the drawing tools, it is recommended that Lower resolutions (higher settings) are used for small data sets. If you do go for a higher resolution you can regain good definition in the profile by increasing the maximum length % of the bars.

Hey Guys. For anyone who still cares. I have a new version of this for you. I apologize for this but the first verions I gave you were basically not much better than a giant pile of excrement. I had to go back through almost everything I have ever coded this week and change some things. I am finally finished fixing this one up, so that it works properly. I made some feature improvements while I was at it:

-You can now set a look back period on it by either days or bar count.
-It now has the option to display extended standard deviation lines.
-It also now plots the data into subgraphs so that you can set alerts for it or use it in trading system calculations.
-More Importantly it actually works properly now. It especially shreds in replays, fast and very accurate.



Settings:
Study Input: Sets The chart,study and subgraph input data that you want to analyse. defaults to zero when you open the study or remove a study it is attached to.

Max bar Width: Sets the Maximum Bar width across the chart.
Increment Value Per Bar: Sets the bar increment (actual value not % anymore) This can also take either whole or decimal numbers.

Calculation Method: There are 3 Calculation Options: 1: Start of chart from start of loaded data in chart. 2: Number of bars - set to calculate over the most recent x number of bars. 3. Number of days - set to calculate over the most recent x number of Days. (if the number of days is set to 0 than it will calculate the current day only.)

LookBack Period: Sets the lookback period for options 2 & 3. For th number of days option the value in the lookback period represents the current day + the number of past trading days defined in the lookback period.

Include 0 Values: THIS SETTING IS VERY IMPORTANT. It is typically set to Yes unless you are applying this study to something that skips bar indices to avoid innacurate results. For instance, set it to No if you have applied it to something like a swing rotation or zig zag study where all the swingpoints are non 0 values. For volume or cumulative delta you would set it to Yes.

First Standard Deviation %: Sets the first Standard Deviation %.

Second Standard Deviation %: Sets the Second Standard Deviation %.
Split Standard Deviations: When Set to yes it splits the Standard Deviations between the highs and lows of the distribution curve.

Display Extended Standard Deviation Lines: if set to yes it will plot the lines for the Mid and standard deviations in the chart region.

Side Notes: The study also now feeds the data into subgraphs as the chart updates so that you can set alerts, or input it into a trading system. The subgraphs do not calculate the historical values. it is suggested to leave the subgraph drawstyles to ignore. However if you want to view the subgraphs as they update it is possible. Set the colors for the the lines that extend across the chart using the primary subgraph colors.

actually hold of on using that version. Still one more thing I didn't consider when running it on swing rotations. once i have that worked out I will re-post it for you.

Is this now built into Sierra?

no. sorry I don't have time. That was just an example of how something like that could be done. It would take me way to long to actually make a visual display of that sort of thing good, and sufficiently fast. But why not use the the source code as a starting point for yourself?

thnks for ur response.. this is already an awesome study nd cant thank you enough for creating it for free.
maybe i missed it but do you already share the source code?

@sierrachart support. Is it possible to capture this as one of your indicators that comes with the product?
[2016-12-06 20:19:56]
User833286 - Posts: 14
this should be one of the most important indicators out there after volume by price.
please if possible make it a default indicator that comes with sierra chart.
statistical studies are most powerful studies

I would not count on them adding this. Investor RT already does it very well.
I did briefly consider making a well tested bug free version of it but it was going to take too much time to get it right. If I were to finish it, what additional capabilities would you like it to have besides being bug free? Would it need a data grid?
Would you need it to be geared for auto trading?
Would you sponsor my time?

why not.. your study which you have created works perfectly well.
the second release v2 has some bugs but the first one is too good.

what do you mean by data grid?
i am not intending to do auto-trading but definitely some algos can be written.

if sierra chart agrees to put it in default studies and you agree to work on it more i am sure people wont mind contributing to get this functionality out.

Ok, One more release for you guys. It took a while but it was kind of bugging me that I didn't finish this one. I fixed a lot of the issues with the last release.

Main Changes:

-Subgraphs now plot the developing datapoints from the start.
-Removed extended deviation lines option as they are now plotted properly on the subgraphs.
-Simplified the look back period - the only option is now measured in bars ( use 0 for entire chart).
- Added %Probability subgraph so that you can set alerts or generate signals based on any given % threshold.

This will be a little slow on massive data sets ei if you are trying to pull a whole bunch of data from a tickchart or low time frame renko chart. This has always been the main drawback in my opinion.

I do have the capability for storing and loading massive data sets while keeping the chart small and dramatically increasing load performance. Contact me privately if you want that.

Hope this one is better. This will be the last release unless more bugs are found.

In response to post #1, Sierra Chart does have a new study Subgraph Draw Style for drawing horizontal profiles:

Thank you sierra chart.I wish this was available 12 months ago.
A couple questions:
- is he structure that stores the "Subgraph Increments" publicly available in acsil?
- Also how does it handle 0 values?

No. All of this is just temporarily calculated during drawing.

Zero values are processed as well and can produce a horizontal bar.

A skip zeroes setting would be useful as well specifically for swing length

In the latest release, the new Horizontal Profile Draw Style now supports this Subgraph variable to control whether zeros are included or not:

Does this .dll still work, or does it need to be recompiled?
