Hello Support, I am trying to locate Connie Brown's Composite Index within the Sierra Studies list. Given the "study of a study" nature of it plus the fact that the Stoller STARC study is already present in your Study list, it's likely present under a different description/name. If not, it likely would not require custom programming per the attached file. However, I cannot "read" TradeStation (TS) or MetaStock (MS) to understand how to set up such a study within Sierra yet. Can you help? If this request requires paid assistance, please reply with a potential appointment day for this week With kind regards, |

We will look into this.

Hello Support, Apologies, upon searching Custom Studdies > User Contributed Studies, I found the Brown Composite Index Study that prompted my inquiry w/ you. Please consider this matter closed. Thanks for your patience. |

Okay actually that is interesting. We will add it to the main list of studies. But most likely we will just rewrite it from scratch. We were going to follow-up later today and this is the information from one of our programmers: That was not so obvious at first because there are two errors in the PDF that the user sent us. I tracked down Connie Brown's Master's Degree thesis, which does not contain these errors. That document has made it clear how to implement this indicator.

Hello Support, Thank you for this update and I agree that your rewrite would help ensure fidelity. I applaude your programmer's diligence in this effort, demonstrated by locating Ms. Constance Brown's Master's Thesis to again ensure calculation fidelity. In that vein, I'd respectfully suggest that it's possible/likely the C Brown Composite.pdf I initially submitted is from the author's most recently published work on her Composite Index. For support, attached is a C Brown Composite Study II.pdf that documents my citation from Ms. Brown's own work and further explains the Comp Index. To the best of my knowledge, this 2nd edition is the author's most recent word on the subject though admittedly I do not know the date of the above cited Master's Thesis. This brings me back to a Studies question that will also affect your rewritting of this Composite Index. In the ...Study II.pdf attachment, you'll note that the Momentum(9) of RSI(14) is actually added to the RSI(3) value. In my own effort to set this up, I'd found the Sum Studies and assumed this was the way to somehow sum the above Mom9RSI14 with the RSI3. However, I was stymied. For my own edification and training, I would be interested in setting up a paid appointment time after the close today or tomorrow if possible to understand how one might accomplish that Study 1 value added to Study 2 value?

To add together two subgraphs, you need to use the Study Subgraphs - Add study. You will find the documentation here: Study Subgraphs Add Let us know if you still require telephone support.

Hello blucansky, In that vein, I'd respectfully suggest that it's possible/likely the C Brown Composite.pdf I initially submitted is from the author's most recently published work on her Composite Index. The original PDF that you submitted contains the following line. Plot1(RSIMO(+RSI13,"Plot1"): Previously, a function RSIMO9 was declared. I can only assume that RSIMO in the above line should be that function. This looks like a simple typo. The larger stumbling block for me was the the unbalanced parentheses. It looks like an incomplete function call inside the Plot1 function, with RSIMO as the function and +RSI13 and "Plot1" as inputs. But when I look at Connie Brown's thesis, the line reads as follows. Plot1(RSIMO9+RSI13,"Plot1"); This makes it clear that the line is meant to plot the sum of two subgraphs. For support, attached is a C Brown Composite Study II.pdf that documents my citation from Ms. Brown's own work and further explains the Comp Index. To the best of my knowledge, this 2nd edition is the author's most recent word on the subject though admittedly I do not know the date of the above cited Master's Thesis.
Page 377 of this document agrees with what is written in the thesis. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2018-06-25 16:27:10

FYI, in v1809 64-bit (24324:24325) this warning is given in the Message Log: Notice: The study 'Connie Brown's Composite Index' has sc.FreeDLL set to true. Use only during development! Set to false to reduce CPU time. | 2018-09-20 08:31:23
Could you look into this? |

Thank you, it was an oversight on our part. It has been fixed and will be in the next release - 1810. In the meantime, since this is a relatively small study (in terms of computations and lines of code), it has a very small impact on CPU resources, so you should not have any problems using it as it is. That setting is something that can be used during testing to allow the file to be overwritten without having to exit Sierra Chart.
