Well, your cutoff time "CURRENT_TIMESTAMP - INTERVAL '10 day'" is constantly moving, so that'd account for shifts in what's perceived to belong to the oldest day. Maybe you want "CURRENT_DATE - 10" instead?

'EST' is going to rotate to UTC-5, but that's probably not what you want in the summer. I'd suggest AT TIME ZONE 'America/New_York' or the like. See
Thank you so much. You are correct. The AT TIME ZONE 'America/New_York' is giving correct EST time conversion.
But I think regarding why it looks to be shifting i.e. the same time duration appears to be holding a different count of transactions while the base table is not getting updated/inserted/deleted for its historical create_timestamps, I suspect the below conversion part.
The task is to count each ~15minutes duration transaction and publish in ordered fashion i.e. something as below, but the way it's been written seems wrong. It's an existing script. It first gets the date component with truncated hour and then adds the time component to it to make it ~15minutes interval. Can it be written in some simple way?
