changing MT4 system/server time

Hi guys

Is there any way to change the daily candle opening time on MT4?

I am in the UK and use IBFX (I don't want to change the broker if possible), which is set to open at 00:00GMT for daily candles.

If there is any means to change that variable in such a way that I have the candles opening at 06:00GMT every day, please let me know.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi DT,

I think there may be a script available. Let me do some digging and i'll see if i can find it.

I'm not sure if it works or how well, but I thought it may be a start.

Hi Dan,

Thank you very much. The indicator attached does not work. I have used Sierra Charts with TrackData as a feed. On Sierra you can change periods in the way that you can display for example 3 minute candles or 7 minute candles - however (and this is a long time ago), the daily candle opening time still depended on the data feed used (IB, Trackdata, etc).

I went to MQL (and metatrader) and unfortunately, they also say that they will not change the architecture of MT4 because some people requested the same as I did.

The only other way was to look for a broker in a country which has a GMT -6 adjustment. I know that some brokers display GMT +3 (northfinance, I think) - but I have not found any that suit my requirements. I guess I have to find another way 'round the problem.

Thank you very much for your efforts though.
