DislikedVery true. Although this is all still besides the point. Why does it take such a workaround on an advanced platform like MT4 to just tell it that I want my daily candle to form at some specific hour? It seems ridiculous and I almost feel like its some way for the brokers to make it harder for us to analyze charts.
I still believe GFT has the best charting in the business. I could adjust the candles to do whatever I wanted them to do easily. Unfortunately they're a bucket shop that doesn't use MT4 with EA's.Ignored
