Post From: Timing off in Sierra Chart / Candle delayed by 22 seconds.

This morning I noticed my timing in Sierra chart is off for all of my futures charts. For example when the market opened at 8:30am CT my new candle did not open for 22 seconds after it was actually 8:30am CT.

I have checked my settings:
Session start time - 08:30::00
Session end time - 15:59:59

Evening start time - 17:00:00
Evening end - 08:29:59

In global setting I have Chart Update Interval in Milliseconds to 50

All of my charts that have different futures instruments are all acting the same.

I have a countdown timer so I can see the 22 second delay.


I have gone though and disconnected and reconnected the data feed as well as closed and reopened Sierra Chart. I even created a new chart and it is still experiencing this timing issue.

Do you know what is going on or how I fix this?
