Changing Time in MT4

 

Has the ability to change the time from the default displayed on the charts ever been explored. One of the very few things I flippin hate about mt4 is the time. I would love to see it shown as NY time as it's more indicative for US/Canadian traders.

Just a thought.

Secondarily, creating an expert that can display the london, jpy and ny open as a coloured bar on the charts would also be even more welcomed.

Cheers,

Frank.

Frank,

You can find an indicator that highlights active sessions at http://www.mql4.com/codebase/indicators/351/ and an expert called YOUR TIME at http://www.interbankfx.com/experts.htm?page=catalog4.htm.

Hope this helps.

I tried the "yout time" indicator

I can't get to attahced the "your time" indicator to my chart. Anyone knows how to do that?

I get this message "expert "show_your_local_time" is not custom indicator and willl be removed!" in the jurnal

This is an EA not an indicator, so it needs to be placed in the experts folder and not the indicator folder. Then load it as an expert and a clock will appear in the upper left corn of your chart.
