I am viewing continuous contract ES and noticed that when I show an intraday chart
with times of 9:30 to 16:15 I get one start price, when I change to historical data
and display Daily timeframe I get a different start price.

How can I make the Daily chart show the same as the intraday chart?

Thanks. I tried that and get the same results.

I closed SierraChart and reopened and get the same chart.

Sorry, we were thinking you were looking for something else. The instructions we gave are only going to cause the bar to appear at the specified time, it is not going to change the underlying data.

In the end, the only way to display Daily bars that will match to the Intraday data is by using Intraday data to create the daily bars. Refer to the information here:
Historical Chart Prices: 12.1 - Historical Daily Bars Session Times and Evening Session Trading

I set the chart settings to intraday timeframe 1-0-0 and it seems to be correct.
