I have found why this happen. If futures has "use instrument settings" date is shown OK, but when set "default 24/7" it shows last bar (yesterday) from KineTick EOD as today date.

The reason is that all time stamps in NinjaTrader must be in your local PC clock and due to this and daily bars are no exception.
For if a user lives in for example EST or + hours from eastern time NinjaTrader will start to add hours to the provider sent time stamp to get that time stamp in your local PC time.
Technically the time stamp doesn't matter on daily bars and only the date stamp does. However if enough hours get added to the time stamp from the provider it could add enough hours to push it into the next day for example.
Generally being sure to use a session template that matches the session template the provider sends data in is enough to prevent this from occurring. Default 24/7 will normally cause this however since it starts a new session at midnight and a lot of providers put a dummy time stamp of midnight on bars.
Normally using an RTH session template that is relevant to what your charting will prevent this from happening.
