How do I change the time on my charts?
The chart time on MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 platforms reflect our server time. Vantage trading server time is set to GMT+2 OR GMT+3 depending on daylight savings. All the client terminals by default follow the same platform time settings.
The server midnight (00:00) aligns with the New York closing time (5 pm EST) which allows smooth market operation throughout the week.
Clients can change the time zone to reflect their local or desktop time zone, however, this is not recommended. If one is interested in making these changes, there are custom indicators and other tools available to allow for this time zone change reflection.
