Custom Sierra Chart Templates
Sierra Chart is one of the best trading platforms available to traders while being affordable. It is natively made for Windows, but can be run on a Mac/Linux with software’s such as WINE or Parallels. It gives traders highly customizable charts that can be adapted to any style traders and markets.
It does however come with a high learning curve as it takes hundreds of hours of use and study to learn all the nuances of creating the best charts for your analysis and trading. That is why I am offering many custom charts I have made over the years so you can just install them on your system and start using them right away. All these templates are completely customizable and can be changed to any instrument or periods you want. The chart offerings are constantly being updated with new ones as they are developed.
I have a whole YouTube playlist with in depth tutorials on many different Sierra Chart functions which you can check out HERE.

Troubleshooting:
Occasionally when you open a chart it might not load properly or give an error for example if you are loading a futures symbol that already expired. In order to reload the chart there are several options you can do:
First go to Chart Menu, Chart Settings, Symbol and look up the current contract (for example the front ES contract on the CME for the SP500), click apply and let the chart reload.
You can also go to the Edit menu and click “Translate Symbols to Current Service” and that will make the chart reload.
You can also go to Edit menu and click “Delete all Data and Download” to have the chart reload.
