Version 1652 and higher of Sierra Chart include a Study Summary window.

Full documentation is located here:

Study Summary Window

This is the first draft of the documentation.

This feature is most like the Trade Station Radar Screen.

Thank you for this. Study Summary - Alert True Background. On 1653 I cannot seem to get this to activate. I tried it by adding studies with conditions I know to be true both on a study itself (CCI > X) as well as using Color Background Based On. Neither are triggering the background color on the Study Summary (though the alerts themselves are occurring). There is an "enable" option in Global Settings > Graphic Settings, but it is grayed out. Any suggestions?

Would be best that we use a remote assistance session to look into this.

Actually we are able to duplicate this problem. We are looking into it now. It is an issue in the latest version.

We have this now resolved. It was an inadvertent oversight in the latest version.

We are putting out a new release in a few minutes.

We have released Prerelease version 1654 which resolves this.

Hopefully, you find this Study Summary window useful at least to some extent. We think it should be a good tool for many users. In regards to Alerts, it does provide a centralized view of what particular studies and charts have Alert Condition Formulas which are currently true.

I believe this will be a very useful tool. I have 1655 and everything looks good.

Different instruments with the same studies on them line up nice in the columns. But the same instrument in different time-frames with the same studies don't line up at all.

If you hide a study it wont show up in the study summary window. You should be able to see it in the summary window but not have to have it on the chart.

If you use a study price overlay then you have to set the "Fill blanks with last value" to yes to get the data...but then the study looks all stair-steppy on the chart so you have to put two of them on the chart and hide the one that has the "yes" setting.

Ordering the studies from different charts is difficult. We should be able to order them the way it is useful for us. I want to order multiple time frames in order of time from 60m to 15m to 5m etc, not by chart number. To do that i had to open a new chartbook and duplicate the time-frames to the new chartbook in the order i wanted them -- but then even though they all had one study on them, none of them lined up nor could be made to have an arrangement that was useful.

How do you get rid of the OPEN HIGH LOW LAST and VOLUME columns ?-- its not necessary to have them for more than one time-frame instance of the same instrument.

Here's an image to help you understand what I mean.

Update. After a lot of work I figured out that I have to duplicate the chart window, put all my study price overlays from different timeframes on it, put them all to fill blanks yes setting, then hide that chart window. That gets me one line of columns in the study summary window -- but I still cant get the order of the timeframes right. See image attached.

We are going through all of the suggestions in here.


Very quickly though, the order in which the charts are listed in the Study Summary is according to the way they are listed in Window >> Windows and Chartbooks. So you need to change the order there.

The ordering is also altered by the sort of the rows according to the sorting column. Sorting is selected by left clicking on a column header multiple times to go through the various states.

You should not have to do this. You just need to use this Input:

"Column sorting is selected by left clicking on a column header multiple times to go through the various states. "
--Doesn't apply. Doesn't change the order of columns.

"the order in which the charts are listed in the Study Summary is according to the way they are listed in Window >> Windows and Chartbooks. So you need to change the order there."
--Did that. Nothing happens. The columns order stays the same. See images.

Also, I changed the order of the studies in the study window. Also didn't affect it.

Also. If you hide a study on the chart, the study disappears from the study window.

Also. Alerts from study-price overlays don't seem to show up on the study window.

We are referring to the sorting of the rows according to the particular column selected for sorting.

Since there is only one row in your case, sorting is meaningless.

Also, I changed the order of the studies in the study window. Also didn't affect it.
This will definitely affect the order in which the studies are displayed on the Study Summary window. Make sure you are doing this for the particular chart displayed on the Study Summary window.


Also. Alerts from study-price overlays don't seem to show up on the study window
The alert needs to be on the Study/Price Overlay itself.

There does appear to be a problem, where changing the order of studies in the Studies to Graph list for the chart does not cause them to appear in the same order on the Study Summary in all cases. We are looking into this.

Sometimes this can be hard to make a determination of when there are multiple charts but in the case of a single chart there should not be any issue.

Also.Please don't forget to look at when hiding a study it disappears from the study summary window. The only way I can avoid it is to have two copies of each study on the graph - one for the graph and one for the study summary window.

In regards to post #17, there is a new option for this on the Study Summary >> Settings menu. We are putting out a new version now.

What is described in post #16 is now resolved. There was a definite issue with this.

Solution to post #16 includes ALL hidden studies -- which doesn't work if you have less than ALL hidden studies that you want to show up in the Study Summary Window. It should be made study-specific so that we have the choice with each study to hide BUT show in the Study Summary Window.

Column order looks good now. Thanks.

You can do this, simply by disabling the option Analysis >> Studies >> [select study in Studies to Graph] >> Settings >> Settings and Inputs >> "Include in Study Summary" for the study if you do not want it to be included.

Refer to the image below. So in that image you can see the option that has to be unchecked to not include a study in the Study Summary whether the study is hidden or not.

We have given you a clear answer on how to resolve this. If you are not understanding it, there is nothing further we can do.

This issue is now considered resolved. If the Study Summary does not meet your requirements, we cannot help you.
