Custom Sierra Chart Studies

Have An Idea For A Study?
We Build It.

Tell us what you want to see on your chart, and we write it as a Sierra Chart study in ACSIL, Sierra Chart's own C++ framework. Your rules, your market, your alerts, built and tested on your instrument.

What It Can Do

If You Can Describe It, A Study Can Usually Show It

A Sierra Chart study runs inside the platform, on the same data as your charts. These are the kinds of things a custom one can do.

Mark It On The Chart

Signals, zones, lines and markers. Drawn where your rules say they belong, bar by bar, on the chart you already use.

Read The Order Flow

Bid and ask volume at every price. Delta, imbalances and volume at price, the same numbers you see on a footprint.

Read The Profile

Values from your profile studies. Points of control, value areas and other levels from the TPO and volume profiles on your chart.

Alert You

Sierra Chart alerts on your conditions. A sound or a message when the rules you defined are met.

Say It In Words

An on-chart panel. A short summary of what the study sees, so you read a word instead of counting numbers.

Feed Your Other Tools

Values other studies can use. Outputs that Sierra Chart alerts, spreadsheets and other studies can read.

What We Have Built

Every Study We Sell Started As An Idea.

The same team builds custom studies and our own catalog. A few of the studies we have written:

Market Profile Copilot

Five studies in one DLL that read your TPO profile, calibrate themselves from your chart's last sixty sessions, and publish their values for Sierra Chart's alerts.

See Market Profile Copilot

Absorption Pack

Four studies that find absorption on the chart: the Absorption Bar, Absorption Zones, Trapped Traders and Hammer with Absorption.

See the Absorption Pack

CVD Divergence Indicator

Finds regular and hidden divergences between price and cumulative delta, and draws the divergence lines on both, on any bar type.

See the CVD Divergence Indicator

Orderflow Suite

Eight order flow studies, from Delta Divergence and Delta Flips to Order Gaps and Clean Finish Auctions.

Plus the eight free studies in our Starter Kit, from order blocks and supply and demand zones to a session highlighter and a signal backtester.

How It Works

From Idea To Study, In Five Steps

Describe It

Tell us what the study should show, the rules behind it, and the market and bar type you trade. A screenshot or a sketch helps.

Agree The Spec

We turn your idea into a written spec: the inputs, what gets drawn, the alerts and the edge cases. Nothing is built until you agree it.

Quote And Terms

You get a quote with the price, the timeline and how the study is delivered, all agreed for your project.

Build And Test

We write the study and test it on your instrument's data before it reaches you.

Deliver And Adjust

You get the study with notes on every setting, and we fix anything that does not match the spec.

Questions

Before You Write To Us

Can you rebuild an indicator I use on another platform?

Often, yes. Describe its logic, or share its formula if it is yours to share, and we rebuild it as a Sierra Chart study. We do not copy closed source code.

Which Sierra Chart package and data feed do I need?

It depends on what the study reads. An order flow study needs bid and ask volume from your data feed, for example. We confirm what your study needs in the spec, before you commit.

How much does it cost, and how long does it take?

Every study is quoted after the spec. Two ideas that sound alike can take very different amounts of work, so the price and the timeline come with the quote.

Is my idea kept private?

Tell us when you first write. Confidentiality is agreed in the quote, along with the delivery terms.

I only need help setting up my chart.

Our Template Configuration Support covers installing and configuring our templates.

I need a full custom chartbook, not a study.

Custom studies are chart analysis tools built to your specification. They do not predict price, and they are not a trading system, financial advice, or a solicitation to trade. Futures trading carries substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for every investor. Past chart behaviour does not indicate future results.
