For the POC, you can use the Volume Value Area Lines study. Refer to the information here: Volume Value Area Lines We are not sure what "1/2 BACK" is referring to, but if it is the midpoint, then you would just need to put together a few studies to find that. Start with the High Low for Time Period and then you would use the Study Subgraphs Average to find the midpoint. Refer to the information here: High/Low for Time Period and here: Study Subgraphs Average For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing Date Time Of Last Edit: 2020-12-07 21:01:36

Another way to do the daily midpoint assuming that is what you are looking for is explained here with the Daily OHLC study: Daily OHLC: Displaying Midpoint of High and Low Lines Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

Hello, So, basically, in WindowTrader Blue each shift of the POC during the day is highlighted in gold color. I was looking to get a visual representation of how the POC migrated from the start of the day to where the POC is now in Sierra Chart as well. I also would like to get a visual representation of how the mid-point migrated/shifted around (in America I have been taught to call it 1/2 back). Anyways do you have studies that can do that already - I was thinking it would like a study I can choose like VWAP given that windowtrader already has that feature. Thank you for you help again. |

I think this will show what you are looking for. It is already built into SC. I keep it on my chart and it shows what the VAH/VAL and POC are at the time of each bar, so you will see it change as the day goes on. Hope this helps.
