How to display time elapsed since last trade

I would like to numerically display on the chart the time (in seconds) elapsed since the last trade (tick) happened.
It should show something like a counter (clock) since the last tick traded. When there is a new tick, the counter would reset and start the counting again from zero. This way I can measure the frequency of trades.
Is there any way to do this in Sierra?

This is not supported but you could create a custom study to do this:

Might be helpful to look at the Countdown Timer study for useful code:
