Why the Mix-Up Happens
- Sierra Trading Post is a bargain retailer best known for hiking and camping gear, clothes and home items.
- Sierra Chart is a downloadable program for following and trading financial markets.
- The only overlap is a word in the name. This site belongs to the software, has no tie to that store, and sells no merchandise.

Think of It as a Market Trading Post
- Long ago a trading post was where people gathered to swap wares. Sierra Chart does a similar job for financial markets by gathering prices, depth, analysis and orders in one spot.
- Rather than walking aisles you scan charts; rather than paying at a till you click the ladder to enter or leave a position.
- Look
- Candles, volume and depth side by side.
- Judge
- Indicators, alerts and spreadsheet rules.
- Move
- Ladder clicks and routed orders.
- Check
- Trade logs and result reports.
