Alpari uk MT4 market hours?

I searched the forums for a while and I couldn't come up with a reasonable answer...


on the Alpari uk website, it states that "the timezone of our trading servers is always GMT/BST+1"

but on the Alpari MT4 charts, it runs from Mon 00:00GMT to Fri 23:00 GMT (cutoff at 2259)

meaning its missing 1 hour on the charts?

(market stops at 5pm EST on Fri and starts on Sun 5pm EST, stops 48 hours)

And is it correct that 0 GMT corresponds to 10am in Sydney time (GMT+10)?

so this means that 2 hours of the Sydney open isnt on the chart?

or is it a case of Alpari constantly readjusting the charts to accommodate for daylight savings? (I live in EST and summer time is -4 and winter is -5, and in London, summer +1, winter 0 )
(Also, Sydney observes DST and right now is GMT+10)


So I would just want to know the reason why Alpari is missing 1 hour of data
(I'm pretty much clueless right now, I'm only sure of the London open and NY open by double checking with online clocks)


Sorry if the question comes off as unorganized, because this is very confusing

I'd appreciate it if someone explains this

Thanks

It varies from broker to broker, some close up early. any howz, trading on a friday closes at 4-5pm any way, so no matter if it stops at 22hrs GMT, trades wont be allowed any way.

HI there.
I am based in the uk and use Alpari charts.
They open at 11pm BST on a sunday. ( midnight central european time)This is currently GMT plus 1 hour. When the clocks go back at the end of october to gmt it will become 10pm gmt. They currently close at 10pm BST on a friday.

Hope this helps
Andy

p.s. I think you have read their statement wrong. What they say is that their charts are gmt/bst plus one hour ie central european time, whether you are in summer or winter and based in the uk they will always be one hour ahead.
