TPO Chart Issue

I am using Sierra Chart via IB Data feed and realized that as of yesterday, the TPO data is off. Bar A starts at 8:30am EST and as you can see in the screenshot with a time of 10:22am EST, the TPO is showing profiles with A B C and D, where it should just be A and B. I have checked time zone in global setting and it is set properly, so I am not 100% sure how to fix this. Can you please help?

If you have not changed the default for the Input TPO Letter/Block Time Period Length in Minutes (the default is 30 minutes), then what you are seeing makes perfect sense. You would have the letters based on the following times:
- 08:30:00 - 08:59:59 -> A
- 09:00:00 - 09:29:59 -> B
- 09:30:00 - 09:59:59 -> C
- 10:00:00 - 10:29:59 -> D

Refer to the information for that Input here:

Thank you for pointing this out. Looks like my trading start time got switched to 8:30 to 15:15, setting it to 9:30 to 16:15 fixed it.
