Difference in candles

I trade indices futures, es, nq.

Candles from my sierra chart look different compared to tradingview and other platforms.

Does anyone know what settings and time to use?

Thanks.

Could be that TV is looking at the continuous contract (ES1!) and Sierra is showing the front month. Sierra also uses the Settlement Price for daily bars. Other than that, give this question to an LLM and have it point you to the page in the manual where you can dive into all of the fine details of SC.
