    Why do the trend lines change when I change the "session template"?

    Ok here's the deal. I was practicing my day trading skills on Replay, trading the ES.
    I finished the whole trading day, and had all my trend lines drawn, and it looked good.
    But then I realized that I forgot to set the session template. Usually I set the session template to "Default 24/7" because I use over night data. But the session template was set at "use instrument settings" I changed it to default 24/7, and when I did all the channels became different (different touch points). . And so it changed everything in terms of the trades I had found.
    I really liked the channels I had when using"use instrument settings". Now I am not sure if I should use Default 24/7 template, or use "use instrument settings". Is this a significant setting? Can you give me some insight as to why the channels changed?

      Really? You want to see my log and trace files? Is it not normal for channels to change shape when the session template is changed? I figured it was normal. I was just trying to get an understanding as to why the channels change shape. I will follow your instructions and send you want you ask, though. Thanks.
