I just opened fxcm demo using MT4 (in MT4 Navigator window - right mouse click on Account - Open account - insert FXCM - Scan - and open FXCM demo).

You cannot change MT4 time to 13:40. Impossible.

You might be able to change Trading Station to 11:40. I don't know

H4 bars start at midnight 00:00. 

It looks like FXCM have another MT4 server you can connect to with time 13:40 - FXCM_USDDemo see Sergey's post.

For screenshots I press PrtScn on keyboard and edit in MS Paint.

They have 5 demo servers (for demo account) and many 'real' servers (to open real/live account) - as I see from open account window:

What GMT offset am I on with MT4?

FXCM MT4 servers are on +2/3 GMT offset (New York Close), except:

  • EURReal01
  • GBPReal01
  • AUDReal01
Why GMT +2/3?
The servers above are set to GMT +2/3 to give 5 daily candles in a given trading week. The daily candles will also start and end at 5pm EST. MT4 closes daily candles at midnight for the time set on that server. Midnight GMT +2 is 5pm EST. During daylight savings time midnight GMT +3 is 5pm EST. We will change the time from GMT + 2 to GMT + 3 for daylight savings time. The important thing to remember is that these servers will close daily candles at 5pm EST year round and only have 5 daily candles per week.

To request your MT4 charts to be set to New York Close, please send an email request to admin@fxcm.com.

Please allow 2-3 business days for processing.

*Note: Currently, this is only offered to clients that have a USD or AUD denominated account.
