I created a custom symbol based on the 2-year and 10-year bonds, ZT and ZN, using the formula: {ZNU21-CBOT}*2-{ZNU21-CBOT}
Plotting the symbol as candlestick bars, it normally works correctly. However, occasionally it throws up some anomalies like the one in the screenshot

Note: chart times are in Central European Time (NY + 6)
The open and close values are correct based on the corresponding values of ZT and ZN for that bar, but the high and low are obviously reversed, with the high showing a lower value than the low.
Is there any way to correct this?

That can happen at times based upon the fact that the OHLC values are calculated in a batch across a short span of time.

We can add a study, which would correct this.

Thank you, that would be excellent.
Do you have an estimated delivery date for the study?

Any progress on the proposed study to fix this problem?
