Problem with Study Price overlay - time shift

In the attached chart - M15 - I am using two times the Study "Study/ Price Overlay".

In both cases the source is a 1 Day Chart (Intraday). Opening Time of the EUREX 08:00 - 22:15 and for all charts I am using Brussel's time.

To get a correct line representation I have to take a displacement of more than 2 hours. Here in that case I made a displacement of 9 for the red line. The blue line do not have any displacement.

I have the feeling that this error is in connection with the time zone UTC because the time shift is exactly two hours

Additional remark

As you can see in the attached file it is much more complex.

If you take a look on the red line only in some cases the line is correct (with a time displacement of 9) but in other cases the line is too long or it starts 9 times later.

The blue line to not have any displacements

Disregard the prior response, it was not correct.

Based upon what we understand you want to do, you need to set the Bar Time Matching Method Input to Containing Match.

Do not use a Displacement setting for the Subgraph. We will not support that. That inherently makes this very complicated and confusing even for us.

We have removed the displacement. We have set the Study/Price Overlay study to use a Containing Match and there appears to be a good result now:

The chart only shows one instance of the study for simplicity.

It works brilliant. Thanks

In what cases I have to use the Containing Match?

In this case you would need to use Containing Match. It depends upon what exactly you are trying to accomplish. Refer to the documentation for the Bar Time Matching Method Input for the study.
