Hello everyone! New user to Sierra and currently trying to familiar myself with the software which feels overwhelming right now with all the different settings and customization options. So i am reaching out here for help and would like to know how i can change the number bar charts to display large size, anyting over 9999 i would like to be displayed like 13.2K as an example and for millions could show 1.3M I looked into the Sierra documention and found that i need to change the value format to "Large Integer with Suffix" but after doing this, i can`t see no change at all on the footprints. The reason i want to have it displayed like this is because i trade only stocks so if anyone can help me show how to change this i would appreciate it. I want it to look like this https://imgur.com/9ITYGTT

The way the candlestick bar is shown is by using the Study/Price Overlay study, and overlaying the Main Price Graph back onto the Numbers Bars study. Then you need to change the Graphics Settings - Chart to make the Candlestick narrow for that particular chart. Also, refer to the following options that are built-in to the Numbers Bars study: Numbers Bars: Open and Close Marker Style 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: 2021-02-22 15:05:04
