Post From: OBV and Volume is off from BarChart and TradingView

I compared the on-balance volume for DNA between SierraChart and TradingView because bad data is surprisingly a real issue in this industry. The OBV between the two platforms was significantly off (SC being bullish and TV being bearish). On deeper inspection, the OBV in SC appears to be off because the volume in SC is off because the timeframe in SC is inconsistent. For example, on 23Mar2022 on a 240 minute chart, one candle starts at 8:00, the next candle starts at 9:30, followed by the next candle at 13:30 with volume being different between SC and BC. Last time I checked, there is 90 minutes between 8 and 9:30 instead of 240 minutes. Is there some special setting to give 240 minute candles for a 240 time frame?
