Using "Cumulative Sum of Study" , I plot cumulative $TICK-NYSE (Market Stats) data in Sierra Chart, but I'd like to display it as candlesticks instead of the default line/bar chart with "cumulative Sum of Study". I've noticed that the Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator use candlesticks. Please tell me how to Show Cumulative $Tick-NYSE (Market Stats) as Candlesticks instead of Line/Bar.

We really do not understand what you are doing, or what you want to do. But if you have a way to define the Open, High, Low, and Close to create a bar, then the easiest way to do this is to use the "Spreadsheet Formula - Bar" study. Refer to the following: Spreadsheet Formula For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing |

In your NYSE Tick Chart: Go to Chart Settings > Bar Period > Graph Draw Type > Candlestick Bars |

Thanks, CMET That's not what I meant. I have TICK-NYSE displayed as Candlestick. I have applied "Cumulative Sum of Study" on it and the result is the cumulative TICK-NYSE in Chart Region 1. But it's in line or bar format. I want to show the cumulative TICK-NYSE as Candlestick. Thanks |

The "Cumulative Sum of Study" has to be set to be the cumulative of one of the 4 items that make up a bar - Open, High, Low, and Close. To get a "Bar" for the "Cumulative Sum of Study", you would need to sum each of the item, which would require a total of 4 "Cumulative Sum of Study" studies, one each for Open, High, Low, and Close. Then use the "Spreadsheet Formula - Bar" and set each item to reference the appropriate Cumulative Sum of Study.

Gotcha. An alt to spreadsheet would be to take the code for the "Cumulative Sum of Study" and create a new version that includes the ability to plot candles. Like mentioned above, you just need the O,H,L,C to create them. Original code is in Studies5.cpp |

Here's a custom version of the Cumulative Sum of Study. You can add the dll to your Data directory or compile yourself with the cpp file. |
