[Programming Help] - Subgraph in more regions, is it possible?

In my test trading sytem based on moving averages I would like to see the moving averages wich I use for market entry/exit signals in the region 1, the main graph, while I would like to see the values of some control vectors, used for debugging and defined as subgraph, in a different region in order not to create video confusion on the main graph, is it possible?

Yes, here's how: Chart Settings: Chart Region (List) (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Regions >> Chart Region menu) |

First, to display the Moving Average as a line in Region 1 and other Subgraphs in another region you would need to use the Study Subgraph Reference study and change the Draw Style to what will work for what you want. These Subgraphs of the source study will need to not be drawn in that study. Refer to the documentation here for the Study Subgraph Reference study: Study Subgraph Reference And refer to the settings here for the Draw Style for the Subgraphs: Chart Studies: Subgraphs Tab >> Draw Style This may be unrelated, however: If you want to only display certain values from the Moving Average, then refer to the following Study Collection that uses the Color Bar Based on Alert Condition to display the Bar Difference only when the Bar Difference is greater than 10. You can use this as a basis to work from: https://www.sierrachart.com/AdditionalFiles/BarDifferenceOverValueOnLow.StdyCollct Here are the instructions for how to use this Study Collection: How to Use an Advanced Custom Study or a Study Collection: How to Use a Study Collection Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

ok, in this way I can manually move the individual studies applied to the main graph in other regions. But what I meant was different. For study reasons, I programmed a classic Trading System based on 2 moving averages. When they are crowned on the chart an order is opened or closed, I don't go into detail because it is a classic and well-known example. In the programmed trading system there is also a "counter", practically it is a vector of integer values, : SCSubgraphRef CandelaSubgraph = sc.Subgraph [7]; for each new candle in the graph's time frame a routine performs a calculation.. it calculates an integer value and saves it in the vector. The trading system that I have programmed must be able to show on the screen the 2 moving averages (and this does it regularly) but also a line that represents "CandelaSubgraph", but this one in a different region, otherwise it could not be seen since the calculated values differ too much from the price of the financial instrument.. This is the meaning of my request, I hope I was clear now. Thanks Piero Date Time Of Last Edit: 2019-06-06 14:55:27

without the SCSubgraphRef CandelaSubgraph = sc.Subgraph [7]; (in hide mode) https://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=28986 with the SCSubgraphRef CandelaSubgraph = sc.Subgraph [7]; https://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=28987 https://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=28988 |

First, you need to use the Study Subgraph Reference as stated previously to reference that subgraph (Subgraph 8). From there you can either display the Study Subgraph Reference in another chart region, as you have stated you want to do. To do this, refer to the information here: Chart Studies: Settings and Inputs Tab >> Chart Region Also, note that in that same section is the information for how to overlay a study in the same region. Therefore, if you want to display the Candela subgraph in the main chart region, you would just need to follow those instructions, which basically amounts to setting the scale for the Study Subgraph Reference to Independent.

Also, make sure you set that Subgraph 8 shown in this image here: https://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=28988 to a Draw Style of Ignore.

Setting the parameters as suggested: https://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=29002 https://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=29003 + indipendent scale I have this result chart: https://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=29001 it is not the expected result because it inserts the graphs of the 3 moving averages + the arrows indicating the entrances and exits in the wrong region, it should be the region 1, while the Candela vector now is in the right region, the 2. It also uses the same scale in region 2 for all the lines: moving averages, arrows, Candela .. going to flatten everything.. this is because the Candela line should have a different reference system(scale) than moving averages and arrows. However it would be enough to have only the Candela line in the region 2 and all the other lines in the region 1.. but I don't see how it can be done.. Working with the ACISIL if possible.. |

We thought we had given sufficient information. Refer to the documentation for this here: ACSIL Programming Concepts: Drawing Study in Two Different Chart Regions Your trading study needs to be displayed in Chart Region 1 and have an Automatic Scale Range. You must set the Candela (subgraph 8) Draw Style to Ignore and follow the instructions above to reference it and display that Subgraph in another chart region.

Thanks now it's clear and it works. I did not understand that "Study Subgraph Reference" is itself a study included among the other studies to be applied to the chart.. |
