Post From: Reversal Bar Errors

What I have noticed is that the first time I load a chart, particularly of a new market, the bars are always wrong. On the continuous contract, if I follow the steps for re-downloading the continuous contract futures data, that chart is fixed.
This really must mean there is some existing non-tick data for whatever symbol you are charting. If new data was actually being downloaded for all contract months, and that was tick by tick data, it would make absolutely no difference to re-download the data.

Make sure you do not have New Bar at Session Start enabled in Chart Settings.

Also, is it possible to eliminate all the gaps on the chart when using the reversal bar as I don't want to see the weekend gaps or the contract rollover gaps (for the continuous chart). Is there an option I can select to do this?

You can remove the rollover gaps by enabling one of the back adjusted continuous contract options:
