AMT Multi-Time Frame Signals
Cross-timeframe alert aggregation in tabular format
A custom study for importing alerts from a linked chart and displaying them in tabular format, similar to Sierra Chart's 'Number Bars Calculated Values' study. Enables multi-timeframe signal confirmation from a single chart view.
The Concept
Multi-Time Frame Signals aggregates alert conditions from linked charts into a single tabular display on your primary chart. Instead of switching between charts to check if signals align across timeframes, you see all conditions at once in a color-coded grid — making multi-timeframe confirmation immediate and effortless.
How to Read It
A color-coded grid shows signal status across up to five rows.
- Colored cells indicate the referenced alert condition is active on the linked chart
- Uncolored cells indicate no signal on that timeframe
- When multiple rows light up simultaneously, signals are confirming across timeframes
- Subgraph labels identify which timeframe or condition each row represents
Practical Tips
Each signal row references a study subgraph on a linked chart — typically a Color Bar Based on Alert Condition study. Set up reference charts at different timeframes with your preferred alert conditions. Enable Auto-Hide Unused Rows to keep the display compact. The Grid Style subgraph controls the visual appearance of separator lines.
Requirements
- Requires Sierra Chart version 2347 or later
Input & Settings
| No. | Input Name | Function |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Background Color | Defines the background color used for the alert grid. |
| 2 | Transparent Background | If enabled, the 'Background Color' is ignored, and instead the alert grid background is colored the same as the underlying chart. |
| 3 | Show Labels on Right | Subgraph labels are displayed at the right hand edge of the chart window when enabled, otherwise at the left hand edge. |
| 4 | Draw Grid | Defines whether or not a grid is drawn separating each row and column in the alert grid. The color, line style and line weight are controlled by the 'Grid Style' subgraph. |
| 5 | Hide Labels | When enabled, no subgraph labels will be drawn. |
| 6 | Color - Signal | Defines the cell color used when the reference alert study evaluates as non-zero. |
| 7 | Color - No Signal | Defines the cell color used when the reference alert study evaluates as zero. |
| 8 | Auto-Hide Unused Rows | When enabled, any alert row that is disabled will be automatically hidden. |
| 9 | Signal 1 Enabled | Sets the state for the first alert grid row. |
| 10 | Chart Study Subgraph Reference | Defines the reference study subgraph used for Signal 1 row. Typically references a Color Bar Based on Alert Condition study. |
| 11 | Signal 2 Enabled | Sets the state for the second alert grid row. |
| 12 | Chart Study Subgraph Reference | Defines the reference study subgraph used for Signal 2 row. |
| 13 | Signal 3 Enabled | Sets the state for the third alert grid row. |
| 14 | Chart Study Subgraph Reference | Defines the reference study subgraph used for Signal 3 row. |
| 15 | Signal 4 Enabled | Sets the state for the fourth alert grid row. |
| 16 | Chart Study Subgraph Reference | Defines the reference study subgraph used for Signal 4 row. |
| 17 | Signal 5 Enabled | Sets the state for the fifth alert grid row. |
| 18 | Chart Study Subgraph Reference | Defines the reference study subgraph used for Signal 5 row. |
