We see a couple of issues. First, the entry for the End Time of the High Low for Time Period - Extended should not be at the beginning of a bar. It needs to be 1 second prior to the start of a bar in order to capture the actual data from the 5 minutes between 09:30:00 and 09:35:00. In other words, the end time needs to be 09:34:59. Otherwise, you are including the data from the bar that starts at 09:35:00 and goes to 09:39:59. Second, when you change the chart to a 2 minute chart, the High Low for Time Period - Extended study has the same issue with the data, in that you define the End Time at a time that is in the middle of a bar, therefore the entire bar is taken into account, which actually takes you to 09:35:59. Therefore, you either need to have a chart that is evenly divisible by the time period defined in the High Low for Time Period study, or the opposite, the time period needs to match up with the chart time. All of this is explained in the following section of the documentation for that study: High/Low for Time Period - Extended: High/Low Accuracy For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service: Sierra Chart Teton Futures Order Routing Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-09-30 00:41:31
