I am using Sierra with IB data from my IB/TWS, and have noticed some subtle differences in charts drawn by IB and charts drawn by Sierra.

Sometimes the Open or Close in a bar are different between the two charts, resulting in a slightly different candle, for example a small green candle in the Sierra chart and a Doji in the same candle in IB ...

I have been looking for configuration options, but have not found anything that can explain the difference. Same data, different chart! How is this possible and what is going on?
