Your SC chart shows 1hr bars beginning at the bottom of the hour (##:30), whereas the others show 1hr bars beginning top of the hour (##:00). Did you try enabling 'New Bar at Session Start'? Chart Settings: New Bar at Session Start (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Session Times >> Intraday Chart Session Times menu) |

I changed session start times and it made the chart look different but not like the other charts or even close. I'm not sure i want the candles to start at the session break as i am not sure that is how other people with other platforms would view the chart. Not really sure how to fix this. |
