In top of the chart, is a long line of numbers which start from telling me what quote I am looking and the time of the chart.. Then are all the numbers related to market movements.
I would like to remove all those numbers (but not the quote and the chart time) and possible set a clear and visible time of the ending of the current candle.
Thank you

This is known as the Chart Header and in the Working with Charts documentation it explains how to change it:

I follow the instructions from the link/page you sent me..
1) I tried to set the "bar countdown" from: GLOBAL SETTING >> CUSTOMIZE CHART HEADER and add the "bar countdown" on the header fields but is not there.
2) I tried to set from the STUDIES and I tried both: The "bar end time", again, I cannot see it anywhere in the chart. The "bar time duration", is not what I am looking for as what I need is just the simple small clock display the time of the active candle. Note: in the instructions you sent me, it also explains that the "bar end time" option may need to be set as ~YES Display Continuous Time Countdown Based on Real-Time Clock~ from the "setting". I open the "setting" window and I could not see that function.

I guess I need more help.. Thank you

The chart header fields you are looking for are simply Date and Time.

You do not need anything more than that. Those are displayed by default.

In the past I tested other platforms and all of them have as a default or as an option the ability to show the candle-time. I understand that Sierra chart may not have this option. Thanks

This is rather puzzling why you are not seeing the Date and Time. The Date and Time fields are on the the Region Data Line by default.

When you are scrolled to the very end of the chart, they indicate the ending time of the last bar. Refer to the attached image.
