I opened 3 charts of contracts: MESU1, MNQU1, MYMU1
The graphs of the Dow Jones and the MESU1 are normal but the graph of the MNQU1 has gaps, missing bars, and missing days. I checked that the definitions of the contracts are the same

We cannot tell any problem from this Message Log. Everything looks fine.

We want you to use the Sierra Chart Historical Data Service and open a chart for the same symbol (the symbol format is different though) and see if you have any problem with that data:

We need more information about this. This is not clear. We do not know exactly what you are doing. We need the precise steps and what the exact issue is.

Hi

I open a graph of one of the contracts and click on the "vertical line" at the top

Only in the Dow Jones Chart does the vertical line appear and when I do the same action in the rest of the charts, nothing happens

the blue arrow points at the "vertical line" which is activated
Nevertheless, the vertical lines don't appear on the chart

I tried it on the MNQU1, MYMU1, MESU1 & M2KU1 charts and It appears only on the MYMU1 chart but not on the others

If you want to use the Vertical Grid, then refer to:
Chart Menu: Vertical Grid (Chart menu)

There is more than one setting related to this.
