When I compare my fxcm website chart to sierrachart the price bars/ candlesticks are not the same. Also sierrachart loads extra bars than fxcm website chart starting earlier than the forex session starts.

There may not be an exact match. For additional information refer to:
http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/SCRealTimeFOREX.php#DataRecordingModes

Please be advised, the data that is provided from the FXCM data feed is what it is. It may not match what you see from a FXCM chart because of various different reasons.

Also sierrachart loads extra bars than fxcm website chart starting earlier than the forex session starts.
Give us a specific time that you see this so we can see if it is normal.

It always starts loading bars at 11:30 pst sunday before the market opens at 2 pm sunday like some sort of pretrading hours. The fxcm website will not show these bars and always starts displaying bars at 2 pm pst.

We do see with FXCM they are transmitting data around 3 PM US Eastern time on Sunday. We cannot control that. This is what it is.
