    Open 2 charts.
    Go to chart studies
    Add “Difference (Bar)”
    Go into Study Settings,
    Under “Chart Region” and “Value Format”
    You can “Display as Main Price Graph”

    Open a NGN chart
    Studies > Add Additional Symbol (set to NGM)
    Studies > Study Subgraphs Subtract Difference (Subtract NGM from NGN)

    1. NGN / bar chart
    2. NGM / candle chart
    3. NGN-NGM / line chart

  5. that works but it is extremely misleading and not accurate at all due to the fact that it uses 1 minute bars and just matches the high lows while that bar is being built. you can do it for higher accuracy by building ngn-ngm as its own symbol then you is that symbol just like any other symbol. google sierra chart symbol build.

    The following image is done by MotiveWave. So, it's not simply done using SC, correct? SC is powerful but it's overly complicated and not very intuitive....

    You're welcome.
    Don't mind to ask if you have other requests.

    You can also link charts on timeframe and other parameters.
    I've not done it in the template. It's true Sierra is kinda heavy.
