hey

hope this is in the correct forum, if not could a mod please move it!

Need some help with time zones and the economic calendar you guys have.

Right now on my PC it says: 6:05

Taking for example, the JPY Consumer Confidence states "Next 0h 54m 10s".

Economic calendar is set at GMT. Economic calendar states JPY Consumer Confidence @ 6:00.

Now my MT4 is always 1 hour ahead of my PC Time.

What time do I use as my time?!

6AM? 7AM or 8AM? This is driving me nuts all these different times lol

Can anyone help me out please?

 

Maybe an idea would be to program an indicator that plots the current local time to your pc on the chart. I haven't searched but i'm guessing this must be a pretty common problem.

I use forexfactory as a source for a calander as you can set your timezone on it.

 

There is a good Forex Economic Calendar at babypips. It maybe helpful for you.

The economic calendar plays an important function in setting up new market and trade schemes which can help a trader to minimize his or her risk grade while doing the affiliate enterprise. persons who do their affiliate business with the help of Forex are much aware of the variations of the market.

 

I use the calendar of DailyFX: Economic Calendar | DailyFX Forex Events Calendar | DailyFX

 

most of the calendars now contain too much information - for instance, news from brazil, singapore, india, thailand...trader needs us news, uk, eu, canada etc...8-10 countries, not 50-60

 

I use this economic calendar. Time Zone is adjustable if the automatic time zone detection doesn't work, or you want a specific zone.
