Fib retracement tool keeps re-plotting on its own

I'm using custom fib retracement tool to mark levels I trade off. For example, I plot it from 10 to 10.60. The next time I relaunch Sierra, it is still there, but it's re-plotted on its own. For example, the lower line is not at 10 but at 9 and the upper line is at 11.50 instead at 10.60. It happens randomly and not every Fib retracement I plot is affected. I'm using continuous contracts-> volume adjusted, so it's not that it's affected with back adjustment or something like that(a rollover or something). How to fix this? |

Does not make sense. There must be some reason for this that we are not aware of. Possibly it is related to back adjustments to the continuous futures contracts.

As said, I'm not using back adjustment. Please see the screenshots. https://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1724048676585.png In the chart screenshot, you can see what I'm talking about. When I plotted the Fib tool, the upper line was at 134.16, lower at 134.05. That was on Friday. This morning, when I checked this chart, it re-plotted itself. Any idea what is causing this? |

Refer to the following, particularly since it looks like you may be placing the second point into the fill space to the right: Lines/Rays or Other Chart Drawings Move After Drawing Them Also, you state that this is a "custom fib retracement tool". If this is a custom tool that you, or someone, developed, then you need to also look into how it is setup to work and see if there is something in the code that could cause the tool to change.
