See the image above.

Above named study, very popular known as 1st hour of the trade as IB (Initial Balance), showing different levels on Rent 3 tick and 5 Min chart.

DO you know the reason why?

Please help!

Uncheck the New Bar at Session Start option in Chart Settings:

Also, you can still have some slightly different values. You really cannot use this study on variable timeframe bars.

Yeah, even after the New Bar check/uncheck; while the low was aligned to 5mins on Renko but the High could not get aligned. Not sure with Hi/Lo time, time being the important factor, why does the underlying variable activity bars take precedence.

Anyhow, I worked it around with Study Overlay to get the accurate values from the 5 mins chart into the Renko chart.

Thanks.
