I opened up my charts today and see that I am missing candle sticks from my charts. This even happens when I replay my charts. Any help you can provide for this, is greatly appreciated.

None of those steps worked for me.

It's hard for us to tell if there are actually missing bars or not. But, since the rollover for the symbol occurred right around the time that you have highlighted, this looks more like a back-adjustment issue, in that you do not have a Back-Adjusted Continuous contract, so there will be a gap in the bars at the rollover period.

You can do a few things to check, first turn on the option Chart >> Show Rollover Dates. If the rollover shows at the point in which you have the gap, then you know that the issue is the back-adjustment. If you understand that, and are good with the gap as it is, then there is nothing more to do.

If you want to back-adjust the previous contracts so they all line up with the current front contract, then you will need to select a Back-Adjusted Continuous contract option. Refer to the information here;
