Yes this does make sense in the case of an Intraday chart. Refer to:

The only way to solve this is to not use Reversed Session Times:

3 bars is correct for your setup, particularly since you are using an Intraday Chart Data type.

The main thing you need to make sure you understand is that the data is associated with a trading day, even though the dates shown are the actual dates and times.

So, you see a bar for Sunday starting at 18:00, since that is really considered data for the Monday trading day. Then you will see the same thing again for Monday at 18:00 (Tuesday Trading Day) and Tuesday at 18:00 (Wednesday Trading Day).

Refer to the information here regarding the Weekend Data Loading options:
Chart Session Times: Load Weekend Data Setting (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Session Times)

If you only want to see 1 bar, then you would want to view Historical Data. This will give you the 1 bar for Tuesday (for this particular week since Monday was a holiday in the U.S.).

Then you need to go back to Intraday data, which will take you back to the 3 bars.

The historical and daily data are sent different from the exchanges. This is part of why you get different results. But also it's related to what hours are related to what day.

I have the same issue. It's not the day of the week that is wrong, it is the date of the month that is wrong. I have run into this on many occasions.
Is there a fix, or is this a bug that I just have to work around?

February 13, 2024 was a Tuesday. So Sierra Chart is correct.

In your image, we see that you have another program that is showing March 12, 2024, which also was a Tuesday. Note that Sierra Chart is showing February and that inset is showing March. Both programs are correct, but it sounds like you are not comparing the correct dates.
