Post From: Post **1793** Spreadsheet Problems NOT Related to cells disappearing

I am finding different values for number of bars in the exact same time periods between pre-1793 and post-1793 via the spreadsheet system.

I did a fresh data download for each instance of sierra I had open. Each instance was version 1781. An example time period that I checked was 2018-09-01 - 2018-10-02. Both instances counted 205919 bars. I updated one of the instances to 1814 and the same time period reads 205009 bars. I have retested this and found consistency in the bar numbers between any two instances of any version pre1793 sierra chart in any time period. When either of them is updated past 1793 the number of bars changes for the same time periods.

Might this be what is causing my calculations to vary so much from an update?

What might cause this discrepancy in number of bars?

How did one update out of hundreds I've done while developing this system just toast it's calculations?

I get that it is not really your problem and sierra chart engineers are not obligated to fix or otherwise change anything but I have had no question in my mind about sierra chart's reliability. I have come to find that most of my issues with the platform in the past are due to a lack of my understanding exactly how to use the tools provided. That being said I have come to trust the renko configuration I was using and I would like to somehow be able to continue using it if at all possible.
