    4H candles are not closing at the correct time

    Hello,

    I was curious why my 4 hour candles are not closing at the correct time. I went into Tools>trading hours>CME US Index Futures ETH and made sure the start time was 6:00pm. My 4H candle should close at 10pm then 2am then 6am then 10am. However, at 2:00am, my bar timer says there is 2 hours left until the candle closes which would put the closing time at 4am. It is confusing me because I was trying to fix my 12 hour chart first and at 2am it says there is 4 hours left to close which would put the closing time at 6am. Why is the 4 hour chart not doing the same thing when I have the trading hours under data series set to the same thing as my 12 hour chart?

    Hello slade3789,

    Thank you for posting.

    Can you please attach a screenshot of your Trading hours template hours that you are applying to your chart. Also please right click in your chart->Data Series and attach a screenshot of your current settings.

    Thanks in advance.

        With the Trading hours template Start time set to 6:00 PM CST this will not include the first hour of the actual session which opens at 5:00 PM CST. Also within the Data Series please enable "Break EOD" then click Ok->Right click in your chart and select "Reload All Historical Data".

        Let me know if I may be of further assistance.

          Thank you for your help that solved the issue. This is besides the point but is there a way for the x-axis to show the opening time of the candle instead of the closing time?

            Currently there is not an option to change the bars to use the open time as opposed to the close however you may use the link below to submit this request to our product team for consideration to implement in future releases:
