Post From: Evening Session is not charting (US Stocks)

I figured out what was wrong and I'm leaving the answer here for anybody that may run into this in the future. I tried to chart the main price graph as regular and evening sessions for the first time today - Friday- and got no evening data. Apparently, the Friday evening data is considered to be Saturday's data in Sierra. In the Chart Settings, you will see a dropdown that should default to "Load All Weekend Data". When I first started using Sierra Charts, I must have changed that dropdown to "Do Not Load Weekend Data" as it seemed unecessary. I'm in the habit of duplicating charts, instead of starting charts from scratch, so the "Do Not Load Weekend Data" has become the default across all my chartbooks without realizing that would have any significant consequence. To sum up, in order to get the Friday Evening afterhours session to chart, that Chart Settings -> Main Settings dropdown must be set to "Load all weekend data" or "Load Saturday data". |
