Unexplainable wicks on candlesticks

Dear support,

I have a chart based on hourly candlesticks. For some reason wicks are shown, which I cannot explain, because price never moved there. See attached screenshot as an example. The left is tradingview, where you see the 3 bars and the bar in the middle have a much shorter wick on the bottom, compared to the much much longer wick on the bottom that sierra chart is showing (right picture).

I looked through my chart settings, but cannot find any setting that corrects this. Can you explain why I am seeing this?

Thanks in advance!

Hi John,

I was able to resolve this myself. The chart was on heikin ashi setting, which I disabled. Now the wicks look fine!
