Hello,
I noticed that Sierra shows incorrect time for 1 minute bars. If you look at the screenshot you will see 2 platforms, on the left is InvestorRT with CQG and on the right is Sierra Trial. Notice how the last red bar (and all other bars) has a time stamp of 16:14, that is incorrect as this bar should have a time stamp of 16:15 because it's the last bar of the session. Symbol is ES.
Is that a matter of data feed? Clock is synchronized properly and other trading systems are showing this bar correctly as 16:15.

My session start time is 09:30:00 and end time is 16:14:59 for day session only. I'm not sure what needs to be changed in order for all bars to be shifted 1 minute forward.

OK I see that this is the way Sierra does it (Differences With Data and Chart Bars Between Services / Connections / Chart Types: Chart Bar Time Stamping is Start of Bar) but when comparing studies and other things with other people who use different platform it is very inconvenient.
Is there a way to change it?
