FXDD is GMT +3.

Other FX Server times reportedly are:

IBFX: GMT
CoesFX: GMT +3
MetaQuotes: GMT +2
Fibo Group: GMT +2
MoneyTec: GMT +3
Orion: GMT +4
Alpari: GMT +2
Forex LTD: GMT +2
Real Trade: GMT +2
CFGTrader-Demo: GMT+2

Set broker TZ to 3 and Local TZ to 2.

I have down loaded Meta Trader 4 and my 4hr charts are on GMT+2. Are most of the 4hr chart examples like the Moteki trade signals on GMT. If that is the case is there a way to change the time of the chart to GMT?

Thanks

Tom

Chart times are determined by the broker with different ones having different times and are not changeable. That's why a clock is nice. There are 2 important times - local and broker.

so if fxdd is gmt +3 then 4 hr candles on some methods like the tlatomi method which has a system to analyse on 4 hr charts would give different candle formations hence false signals----right??

how do we adjust for that?

To quote someone smarter than me: Just trade the time zone you've got.

Forex is a global market and so there is no correct time zone, hence no false signals from somehow false bars stemming from false time zones. The Tlatomi method is not tied to any one zone. Just trade what you see.

Cheers,

Try setting DST (Dayight Savings TIme) to false.

Here's an updated version that fixes Tokyo time, which doesn't use DST.

The clock is useful but it does not update automatically. You have to refresh it all the time to get it diplay the actual time. Does anyone know how to make it runs correctly without refreshing it?

Thanks

I have been using this clock for a long time and it has updated the time every minute without problems.

MQ4 files are text files that have the code that runs the indicator. It must be placed in the MT4 indicator folder and then compiled with the editor before it will work. Then it will show up as a custom indicator.

The clock only updates on each tick. During the weekend, when the market is closed, it remains at the last tick time. When the market opens Monday morning/Sunday evening, it starts again.

Version 1.1 has a bug with some brokers, so here's a fix:


New version Clock 1_2. Now figures out the local time and time zone from the Windows system calls, instead of having to be configured. This will make configuration a lot simpler.

You will be to check the "Allow DLL Imports" in the Common Tab when you add this to a chart.
