I am wanting to know how to load what is commonly called zip files from Big Mikes forum into Sierra Chart? I cannot find Sierra in my documents files nor in my Programs and Features within the control panel. All I have is the icon on my desktop to open Sierra. How do I upload a "zip file" to sierra to be seen on the charts?
Thank you

You will first have to unzip or uncompress the files.

Then you will have to usually copy the files to the Sierra Chart Data Files Folder. The location of your Data Files Folder can be found by selecting Global Settings >> General Settings on the menu. The folder is displayed in the Data Files Folder box. This is usually C:\SierraChart\Data.


If the file is a chartbook, select File >> Open Chartbook, and select the new chartbook from the list of files.

If the file is a study collection or custom studies files, follow the the steps here:
