Hi, I'm trying out the SC built in VWAP study and I can't seem to get it to draw either the VWAP or the Std Deviation bands.
I'm trying to draw the bands on a 1M 6E chart.
I get the candles fine, just not the bands or VWAP line. There are a bunch of settings there so I don't know if I've configured it correctly.
Comparing to the a 1M 6E Chart on another platform, which draws the bands and vwap fine means that it is not that they are supposed to be somewhere offscreen since in the other platform I can see about the same amount of candles but all the bands and VWAP line as well.
would anyone have any idea what's going on?
hmm, I found them but they are way off it seems to me..
does anyone know how to configure them? so that the st deviations encompass most of the candles usually?
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
It seems obvious but you do have volume data available, correct?
I've been using Sierra Chart for a couple months and finally getting the hang of it but it's definitely frustrating when a study doesn't plot and you have no idea why.
It plots just it is not "covering the candles" like VWAP standard deviation bands usually do, but is way more below and not visible on the current page of candles - you have to scroll back to see it.
Almost like it is calculating the VWAP at some super huge time frame, not the time frame of the chart... that's just a guess. It is set for 1 Day but my understanding is that 1 Day just means it starts the VWAP session at the start of every day.
I tried to send a PM but I don't have enough posts so it gets blocked.
If you happen to use TeamViewer or some other screen sharing app I'd be happy to take a look to try and figure out what's wrong.
You can email me at tmorgan434 (at) gmail.com if you'd like. I think I understand what you're saying. If you can't do a screenshare session then post some screenshots.
if these settings have already been discovered then mod feel free to delete this thread...
i know a lot here use vwap bands so thought i would post some settings i recently discovered by accident...was messing with the settings and was able to display …
