Trendlines move when changing timeframes
31 Jul 2020, 11:49

There is an old thread on this here, and it appears that it still isn't fixed.  See screenshots - the top red trendline is not breached on the daily timeframe but is breached on the weekly.

EURUSD Daily

EURUSD Weekly

Hi jitenlodhia,

Is it possible to post a cleaner chart demonstrating this issue? I cannot understand which of all the lines you are referring to.

Hi jitenlodhia,

This can happen when there is an inconsistency between the data displayed by the two charts. Try scrolling back the daily chart to the start of the trend line and let me know if this resolves the issue.

To clarify, its the same chart just different timeframes.  I have scrolled back on the daily timeframe and checked the anchor points and the issue is still there. 

See bigger charts below:

WEEKLY TL is broken
DAILY TL is not broken

Hi jitenlodhia,

This is probably caused by corrupted data in one of the two charts, probably the daily chart. If bars are missing from the daily chart, this will cause the bars to shift to the left and stay below the trend line.
