Good morning. I have just discovered that the same pair and the same indicators with the same parameters look different in the MT4 of two different suppliers.

How is this possible ?

Why ?

What is the right one?

Many thanks because I am getting nuts...

You may compare their server time. A difference in server time means the candles dont start same time. A 4 hrs candle that started 8:00 hrs will deffinately different from that that started at 10:00 hrs.
Thats why some brokers have 8 days weekly candles why some have 7 days weekly candles.
This also explains why trading with candles is different from broker to broker and some indicators give signals differently from broker to broker if they are not same timing.
