This is done through Graphics Settings:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_GraphicsSettings.html

You need to change the colors and width of:

Candlestick Up Outline
Candlestick Down Outline


And make sure this is enabled:

Hi,
having an issue keeping this setting persistent through application restarts.
It always resets to the confirm enabled setting shown

thanks

Regarding post #7 there are two possibilities.

One possibility is you are changing the Trade Window configuration and therefore changing the Order confirmation options to what were previously saved with the configuration:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_TradeWindow.html#OrderConfirmations


The other possibility is that you are not saving your charts as a Chartbook. Here is the documentation for this:

Thanks so far
1. Are we able to place attached order that doesn't expand until triggers
2 Having issues seeing the daily profit and loss with simulation trade mode, display anything other than 0.00 at the Trade window

1. We do not really understand this. What do you mean by "expand"?

2. Refer to the documentation here:

So instead of all attached orders being displayed when order is placed,
the parent order only is shown, and once that is triggered, the targets and stops are then displayed as spec'd.
in the attached, the buy limit "line", or a similar indicator, would be shown until the limit order was reached
and then once reached, the target and stops are shown as well.
saw this feature in the OEC platform, and it really helped clean up the chart when in use, as can be imagined, especially when multiple orders are placed.
If not a feature, is this something that could be considered?

On the Trade Window menu (M button) you need to enable Hide Pending Attached Orders.

Here are the instructions to open the Trade Window:

Cool, good to see this

another...

With all breakeven features available
is there one that looks at all executed orders and can determine and set a breakeven (stop or limit) exit order
or are the breakevens only specific for
"the Stop Attached Order currently selected in the Attached Order list"
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_AttachedOrders.html#MoveBreakevenForStop

This is correct:
or are the breakevens only specific for
"the Stop Attached Order currently selected in the Attached Order list"

There is no way to hide that Quantity Match box or change its color.
