Why different timeframe on the chart have different open prices?

[Rookieee]

I am new to IG and CFD trading. When I was exploring what kind of function and charting IG has, I found that ZIP's (26/07) chart has different opening prices regarding different timeframe. When I check the market open price on the daily chart, the open price is 7.530. If I change the chart to 30mins or 4hrs, the market open price becomes 7.470. Why would this happen?
