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
