Walk Forward

I am doing walk forward exercise using 3 time frames, daily, weekly and monthly. It's great exercise but noticed some problems:
1. In some bars, close prices do not correspond, and they are different, not all bars but enough to be noticeable.
2. Nearby placements on daily are sometime grossely wrong, e.g., on many occasions, close is clearly under daily-ET, so nearby-R should be at ET, instead it's at pldot to EB and FO-R is at ET. Software is putting FO-R at ET instead of nearby-R.
3. I ran out of bar spaces to the right, so scrolled it to make space, and daily bars stopped updating, and I had to start all over again.
Any solutions, suggestions?Thanks

Are you using the "Pro" software or another version?

Can you attach a picture of the workspace with an example of the nearby's out-of-whack> I have an idea of the issue but would like to check it before suggesting the remedy...


Try: under format/window set "bars to the right" to a large number (suggest 50) to accommodate a longer move to the right...
