What it does

Saves the place of every window of the chartbook for the monitors you have: the main window, every chart, attached or detached, and the Trade DOM.
Puts them back by itself when the chartbook opens on those monitors, and when you plug a monitor in or out.
Each window goes with its own monitor, even when Windows moves your monitors around, for example after you close and open a laptop lid.
A window whose monitor is not there goes whole onto the main monitor. Nothing is left off the screen.
The layouts are kept inside the chartbook, so they travel with it to your other computers.
It draws nothing on the chart and writes no files of its own.

Who it is for

Traders who use the same chartbook at a desk with several monitors and on a laptop, or who change monitors during the week.

What you need

Sierra Chart 2969 or newer.
Windows, on Intel or AMD processors (x64) or on ARM processors (ARM64). The zip has both files, and both are signed.

The study's settings in Sierra Chart: the layout's name, and whether it is restored when the chartbook opens. — The study's settings in Sierra Chart.

How you set it up

Close Sierra Chart. Copy both files from the zip into Sierra Chart's Data folder. Sierra Chart loads the one that fits your computer.
Start Sierra Chart and open the chartbook you trade with. On one chart only: Analysis › Studies › Add Custom Study › TradeRecall Window Layouts › Add › OK.
Arrange your windows. Right-click the chart with the study › Save layout for this screen setup. Do the same once on every computer or screen setup you use.
From then on the layout comes back by itself about 3 seconds after the chartbook opens. By hand: right-click › Restore layout.

The README in the zip has the rest: naming a layout, turning the automatic restore off, removing the study.

It does not change fonts, and it does not place windows that are not charts, such as the Trade Window or the Message Log.
