Merging 2 daily data bars to form 1 bar

My data provider sends daily data with the first day of the week's trading (Monday) split into 2 days - Saturday and Monday (I trade Asian index futures so Friday night/Saturday morning trading belongs to Monday's daily bar). I end up having 6 daily bars per week. Is there a way to merge the Sat data with Monday data (both price and volume) to form 1 daily bar for Monday within SC? Any suggestions?

Since you state that this is Saturday/Monday data, we do not think this will work, but try setting "Chart >> Chart Settings >> Bar Period >> Combine Sunday/Monday Daily Bars" to "Yes", and see if this will combine them.

If not, then the only option would be to create a custom study that handles this. Refer to the following:
ACSIL Interface - Custom Chart Bars

Or, you would have to modify the data before it is brought into Sierra Chart.
