Hi. Is it possible to have different interval vertical grid lines for different chart time frames? I did not see how this could be achieved using the Time Line study. For instance I would like vertical grid lines that satisfy the following criteria:
- When the chart time frame is <1 day, vertical grid lines at the Start of Trading Day. This can be set under Chart Settings -> Advanced Settings 2 -> Vertical Grid Lines (enables) -> Start of Trading Day, however, when the chart time frame is >= 1 day each bar has a vertical grid line which is visually messy.
- When the chart time frame is >=1 day & <1 week, vertical grid lines at the start of each trading week.
- When the chart time frame is >=1 week & <1 month, vertical grid lines at the start of each trading month.
- When the chart time frame is >=1 month & <1 year, vertical grid lines at the start of each trading year.

Thanks

This is not available and is completely inconsistent with the design of Sierra Chart. You just need to use separate charts with separate time frames per bar and configured as you require.

I have this request too, I managed to use Time Range Highlight for this purpose. Not perfect but that is life.
