Installation

Sierra Chart

First, locate your Sierra Chart Data folder. Usually, it should be directly in your Sierra Chart root folder.

What if the Sierra Chart Data folder is not in the root folder?

You can check where it is in the Sierra Chart application under Global Settings>General Settings>Data Files Folder

Now, copy the custom study DLL linked above into the Sierra Chart Data folder.

If the DLL is installed correctly, it should appear in the custom study list as pictured.

Python

In the command line, navigate to the folder with the downloaded tarball.

Run pip install trade29.scpy.X.tar.gz where X is the version you are installing.

Verify the installation by opening a python interpreter with the python command and verifying that importing the trade29 module gives no errors.

>>> import trade29
