Settlement Price is 1317.0: http://www.cmegroup.com/trading/metals/precious/gold_quotes_settlements_futures.html#tradeDate=07/07/2014

Closing Price is 1320.4: (see attached image)

Sierra is showing 1317 (the settlement) as the last price on a daily chart, rather than the actual closing price, is that correct? (another image attached)

Thanks,
Patrick Z

I found this help topic which I suppose is relevant here? https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/helpdetails12.html#h12.7

I could have been mistaken, but I could have sworn up and down that historical daily charts utilized the exchange open/close for daily bars rather than open/settlement.

Please clarify if you can,
Patrick

For bars other than the last bar in the chart, the close price of the bar is always the official settlement. It has always been this way.
