Yes you can and this is documented here: sc.OpenChartOrGetChartReference() There is a parameter to control the number of days to load.

Hello Support Board! Very sorry, but I've read the description prior to submitting the request and double checked it again after your reply. On my understanding, as well as from the examples in studies.cpp to open historical daily chart I need to set: s_ACSOpenChartParameters OpenChartParameters; OpenChartParameters.Symbol = sc.GetRealTimeSymbol(); OpenChartParameters.ChartDataType = DAILY_DATA; OpenChartParameters.HistoricalChartBarPeriod = HISTORICAL_CHART_PERIOD_DAYS; ... What I am not able to find out in documentation and in examples is where to set the number of days for historical daily chart (2 historical days in my case). Could you please clarify it Thank you in advance and With kind regards GmA

This is from the documentation: DaysToLoad: This sets the number of days of data that will be loaded into the chart whether it is a Historical Daily chart or an Intraday chart. If this value is left at 0, then the Chart >> Chart Settings >> Use Number of Days to Load >> Days to Load setting of the calling chart is used. OpenChartParameters.DaysToLoad = 2; Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users. Try to keep your questions brief and to the point.

Hello Support Board! Sorry again, but I am not asking about loading 2 days of quotes into 1 Day chart. I was asking about possibility to open programmably 2-Days chart where 1 bar represents two days of price action. In SierraChart, using "Chart Settings" dialog box, "Historical Chart Bar Period "Days" and value 2 in the text box on a right side from "Days", you are able to open 2-Day Historical Chart. Can I open similar chart using sc.OpenChartOrGetChartReference function? If yes, could you please clarify what is the parameter to set the number of days (what is a Day's multiplier and not number of days to load). If it is not possible, do you have any plans to implement it and if such plans exist then when that will become possible. Thank you in advance and With kind regards GmA
