Extra hour in back test result

Hi, I'm trying to back test an hourly rotational system. The db is set to hourly. Periodicity is hourly. The detailed results are providing the first hour of the day twice, for every day. I must have an incorrect setting but I cannot find it. Sorted by datetime you can see the two rows at 00:00:00 each day.

This second image shows the two entries for the same datetime with different score values for the same ticker.

The first 00:00:00 is at the start of the day and the second is at the end. Are my Intraday setting invalid or another setting perhaps?

Today I'm trying all sorts to fix this. Now I have duplicate entries for every hour. Does the use of rotational trading on hourly bars require specific coding?

What process creates EOD quotes in a 1hr db, as they are not present when the ASCII import is run?

2021-10-21 11_26_26-10.1.1.14 - Remote Desktop Connection

The import format file contains:
$FORMAT Ticker, Date_YMD, Time, Open, High, Low, Close, Volume
$SKIPLINES 2
$SEPARATOR ,
$CONT 1
$GROUP 0
$AUTOADD 1
$DEBUG 1

initial testing shows the duplicate back test hour 00:00:00 problem is fixed by deleting the EOD quote.
