hI, This is very very strange, i need your help please. Yesterday i was simulating NG on 2 minutes chart, i am going to paste the chart below of yesterday’s simulation You will see that 2014-04-09 17:50:37 it was a candle on 4,598 that brokes the previous high on 4,595 marked with a line on red as a doublé top. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED 1.JPG http://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=2446 Today i opened the same chart and i have the big surprise that the values of yesterday’s chart are not the same of today’s chart, as you will se below. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED 2.JPG http://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=2447 The same candle that yesterday’s high was on 4.595, today is on 4.582, and the candle that yesterday 17:50 was on 4.598 today is 4,593. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED 3.JPG http://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=2448 Is there a way that the charts shown yesterday was wrong? Or maybe the wrong data is shown today… this is the first time i have this situation, if you look at the same chart yesterday and today you will see a big difference, take a look This is yesterday’s chart PLEASE SEE ATTACHED 4.JPG http://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=2449 And this is today’s chart, same chart that was saved on yesterday’s sierra charts close. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED 5.JPG http://www.sierrachart.com/Download.php?Folder=SupportBoard&download=2450 As you can see it seems that all the charts is down , or all the drawings is up, i know that may be i can have some diference on the drawing positions, but in this case the highs of the candles is different between the 2 days, same candles on different positions. This is very very strange and of course i think is very dangerous if this is a bug or mistake of the program, or may be the wrong one is me and i can’t see if i am doing something wrong. Could you please help me with this? i am running Version 1110 of Sierra Charts Thanks a lot, Best regards. |

The June NG contract is not the active contract and you are using the Continuous Futures Contract feature. This is what is leading to the problem. This is explained in detail at item 7 in the Notes here: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_ContinuousFuturesContractCharts.html#Notes Essentially you are looking at two different contract months on 2014-4-9. Also a simple explanation about the differences with price bars between two different charts and providing only 2 charts was sufficient. This took us a lot more time to understand because there is too much information here. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
