The weekly close should be the same weekly close regardless of whether you are looking at the intraday one-minute or the historical daily
Sierra's "Historical' data (Daily, Weekly, etc.) is its own feed, and is stored in *.dly files.
Sierra's intraday data is its own feed also, and is stored in *scid files.

The settlement (close) price of 'Historical' data is a derived price, and usually does not match any price at the close.
Therefore, you cannot compare closing prices between these two data feeds.
