Is it possible to have a chart auto reload at a user select time parameter?
If not in a built in chart setting, how about in c++ code via a study?

You can do it via a study using sc.FlagToReloadChartData. (set it to 1 everytime your timer expires)

Thanks.
I had looked thru the source files in the source folder trying to find a way how to do it, but i must have missed that function.

Not to take anything away from what @ktrader has said, but the Sierra Chart support forum has this thread on the same issue:

https://www.sierrachart.com/SupportBoard.php?ThreadID=12358.

By the way @Renko123 if you are using SC, you may want to change your profile here to reflect that.

Thanks for the link.
I was going to bang out some code this weekend using sc.FlagToReloadChartData that ktrader had suggested.
But the code on the support site is even better and save a lot of time for me.

I had also search the SC support site, but used the search term of "auto reload" instead of "auto-recalculate".

futures.io profile updated to include SC platform .
I use more then two platforms, but it appears that I can only enter two.
