Hello, I'm having an issue where my day of the week is starting on Saturday, so all my period OHLC and volume profile (1 week) indicators start on Saturday. I have to manually go into volume profile settings and change it to 1,2,3,4...etc... days to make it point to the right Sunday open. The only fix for the period OHLC is going into General Settings>General 4> and changing the week to start on Monday, which actually makes the week start on Sunday(???) but only for the period OHLC indicator and not the volume profile and TPO indicators. I'm very confused why this changed randomly.

How do you come to the conclusion that the day of the week starts on Saturday?

Because my XBTUSD-BITMEX chart is showing this current weekly open starting at $8916 on this Saturday, instead of waiting today, Sunday to open. It was off by $100 last week as well, unless I change the general settings button as I mentioned.

I have it set to 60 days to load, but it looks like the "date-range in file" starts from: 2019-10-09

I'm having the same issue with the Period OHLC study, it shows Saturday open as the weekly open. Tried the "Use Monday as start of Week instead of Sunday " option but it didn't work, now it shows Sunday open as the weekly open. Weekly chart is showing fine, weekly bar starts at 03:00:00. (UTC +3)
Monthly and Yearly open is also not accurate, daily open is fine though.

Session times like this;

Start: 03:00:00
End: 02:59:59

Use Evening, disabled.

Edit: Period OHLC study shows the correct weekly open value on the weekly chart but when i switch to an intraday chart, it changes.
