Good morning
On my 2 tick renko chart, the opening price does not show correctly as in todays chart foe ESM7 which I am including.
The correct opening price for today is 2344.75 and not 2338 as shoen in the renko chart.
This is not the fist time this happens.
Thanks for our help

There must be some misunderstanding/misinterpretation.

At what time and time zone do you consider the open for the ES futures symbol?

Also based upon the Chart Settings, you cannot necessarily accurately see the true opening price with Renko bars.

Renko open and close values are manipulated and are not true values.

Hi
ESM7 opens at 9:30 ET.
If the chart excludes overnight session, this problem arises some times.

This cannot be a manipulation problem. As you can see in the attached chart, including the overnight session, it is showing the correct opening price at 2344.75, And the 38 price (which is the opening price in the chart excluding the overnight) happened at 10 pm last night, very far form the opening time this morning. So the chart for the daily session is showing incorrect and misleading data

First, that chart is way too complicated for it to be of any use to us.

It does not follow our specifications documented here:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=PostingInformation.php#Image

We also are not fully understanding what you are trying to say here:
So the chart for the daily session is showing incorrect and misleading data

What chart are you referring to?

Here is a Renko 2 tick chart showing the open:

In the Chart Settings, this chart has New Bar at Session Start enabled which must be the case.

Hi
The problem is that when the chart excludes the overnight session, sometimes the opening bars and opening price shown are not correct. Misleading information as statistics based in the opening price will be incorrect.

See the following char with less studies excluding the overnight:

For reference this is the same chart doing Control G and including the overnight session: http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1492625009491.png


thanks!

Uncheck Chart >> Chart Settings >> Fill Session Gap.

And you must enable New Bar at Session Start.
