question about the start time of candlebar in Metatrader

 

My MetaTrader chart seems to be operating in the future.


The charts are suppose to be in GMT, correct?


Well, since I started a demo account with a new company, my charts show the last candlebar time being 2 hours after GMT.


I just looked up what the present GMT time is and it was a little after 10 am, but when I right click on the last candlle stick on my chart it shows the time as 12 noon, which is 2 hours into the future.


Anyone know how I can get this changed.

1. The charts are suppose to be in GMT, correct?

No, not correct.

  1. It depends on your Broker, US Brokers are on US time, European may be on CET.
  2. I don't believe you can

 
The time depends on your broker. Could be GMT, US local, anything. IBFX uses GMT but is in Denver. Some European brokers us German time (gmt+3) There is no pattern.
