When a trading day is removed due to being a holiday like June 20th, subsequent weeks start incorrectly see in screen shot next week starts at June 28. Vertical line anchored on June 27 is shown on week of 21st. it happens on all charts for different markets

The week is actually starting correctly on Tuesday, since Monday was a holiday. You can not look at the forward dates as having any meaning. Once we get to next week it will show correctly as starting on the 27th.

For example, go back to the week of May 30th (shows as 31st). Monday is missing due to the US Memorial Day holiday, so the week actually starts on Tuesday May 31st. But the following week - June 6 is Monday again.

Re>"You can not look at the forward dates as having any meaning"

On my chart I am drawing analyses on future dates, so it is having meaning for me.
I am drawing now, the drawing will be moved because anchoring will be changed, so all my work will have to be redone.
On technical side, It does not make sense that all futures weeks are moved to start on Tuesday because current week starts on Tuesday.

That is the problem with putting drawings into the forward space. The anchor positions will change once the actual data is put it, so you have to adjust the data. This is a general problem and not specifically related to the missing Monday. Refer to the information here:
