The attached image is what we see when we open your chartbook (and change the symbol for our purposes). We do not see anything related to what you show in your image.

Do you see the same problem as your image in the chart in the chartbook you sent us?

Please do the following for us:
- Open the Chartbook that you copied the chart into where you are continuing to see the same problem.
- Select "Chart >> Graphics Settings - Chart"
- Click the box for "Use Global Graphics Settings Instead of These Settings" to turn off the checkmark.
- Select the button on the bottom right for "Copy from Global" (make sure it is the "From" button, not the "To" option)
- Select OK to close the Graphics Settings window.
- Save the chartbook and attach it to this thread.

Hi, I understand, I am just having an issue on my end for some reason, and someone who I trade with also has the same issue on their sierra as I am with these type of charts. Is there a setting I am missing? it looks like its missing data compared to your image. If I delete and download data it loads the same as the attached photo. I have circled the areas, but im sure you noticed them prior.

I believe I found the issue... chart settings, chart data - split data records. should be to the value of "No"
