Hi, Can you help dopey me create a chart with the BTC basis? Meaning the spread over/under which the BTC future at the CME is trading vs the cash/perp? Is it possible? I tried a couple of attempts but they were failures... Thank you for any suggestions. Karen ps it would be CME BTC - XBT-USD bimex

There are a few options for how to do this. Since you are dealing with a CME Future that will keep changing the front contract, we would recommend using the Add Additional Symbol and Spreadsheet Formula (Bar) studies. The following instructions are to get you a bar that shows the differences in the Open/High/Low/Close. If you just want the close then you could use the Spreadsheet Formula and just use the Close Formula. - Open a Chart for the CME BTC Futures. - Add the Add Additional Symbol study and set it for the XBT-USD-Bitmex symbol that you want. - Add the Spreadsheet Formula (Bar) study and enter the following for formulas: - Open Formula: ID0.SG1 - ID1.SG1 - High Formula: ID0.SG2 - ID1.SG2 - Low Formula: ID0.SG3 - ID1.SG3 - Close Formula: ID0.SG4 - ID1.SG4 Where ID1 is the ID of the Add Additional Symbol study. Refer to the following documentation: Add Additional Symbol Spreadsheet Formula --- Another way to do the above is to use the Custom Calculated symbols. Refer to the information here: Custom Calculated Symbols For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing
