Hi,

I use the Sierra Chart Real-time and Historical Forex/CFD Data Service (which, as I understand it, is the FXCM feed)

The opening price for a new day (17:00:00 US Eastern time) on the daily chart is delayed for all the FX pairs on my system.

The time of the opening price varies for individual pairs and tends to be delayed by anything from 15-45 minutes.

I checked the FXCM charts on their own website and they seem to open a new bar at 17.00.00 US Eastern Time exactly (I did not check every pair, only a couple of the majors).

Do you have any idea what could be causing this delay?

Thanks for your help
