Operations Experimental

SC Control allows users to control Sierra Chart replays by creating and saving custom replay profiles. Requires setup.

 

SC Control setup: Inside SC, go to Global Settings -> Sierra Chart Server Settings -> UDP Port -> set value to 6420. Next, go to Studies -> Add Custom Study -> Octopi Controller -> Make sure it’s added as the top-most study on the list. If set up correctly, SC Control window will display Controller status “Connected” and Replay status like below:

  • Match “Start Replay Paused” checkbox within SC Replay window

  • DO NOT use SC Replay panel parallel to controller Start/Stop/Pause buttons!

  • Controller will do the following fully automatically:

    • Rewind chart to desired date/time (specific, or start of chart)

    • Clear SIM (if configured)

    • Enable Octopi study

    • Begin replay 

    • Stop Replay & Disable Octopi Study
