# Time-Series Chart: Time axis (X-axis) tick count (manual: 24 ticks for last 24 hour) is not matching with y-axis data timestamp

Hi Experts,

I am working on a Time-Series Chart in perspective.

My objective is to display machine status(open[0] and closed[1]) information for the last 24 hours.  
With NamedQuery, I am retrieving the machine status and timestamp information for the last 24 hours. Return format is a dataset.

I have defined one series (consumption) and bound the NamedQuery to the data property.

My Query returns the timestamp in UTC timezone as I store. I am changing the session timezone to view the timestamp as per the site's local timezone(for example: Asia/Kolkata i.e., UTC+5:30 in my case)

I have defined one plot with one axis and one trend.

Screenshot of axis and trend configuration is attached below.

For the Time Axis, I have kept the tick count to 24 to always display the last 24 hours.

**But the issue is:**

As you can see in the attached graph, the X trace shows 5:51 (which matches the actual timestamp of the data), but the time axis is off by about 30-40 minutes…

Any idea what’s going on and how I can fix this?
