Specific Time on Charts

[cskrishna]

Hello,
Is there a way we can plot the charts using a specific time like GMT on the x-axis of the charts?
Thank you so much for all your help.
Csk.

Hello,


Thank you for your post.


Within NinjaTrader 7 the x-axis of all charts will be automatically time stamped to match the time zone of your PC clock. If you would like to change this, you will have to change your PC clock. If you would like your charts to be time stamped in Greenwich Mean Time, you will have to set your clock to UTC (Coordinated Universal Time).


You may use the steps below to change your Time Zone and sync the PC clock, note to set the server to time.nist.gov.

You can sync your PC clock by double clicking on the clock in the lower right corner of your desktop. Press 'Change time zone...' Set the Time zone and press 'OK'.

Once you have done that, click on Internet Time tab set the server to time.nist.gov and then click Update. Your PC clock should now be updated.

Once you have updated your PC clock, please restart NinjaTrader.


Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

This is quite inconvenient. My PC time is useful for many purposes and should be based on local time. My "trading world", including all the other trading tools I use is centered on New York time (EST). It would be much more convenient, and less confusing if I could set NinjaTrader to apply an offset or display time based on a specified time zone.

Please consider this a feature request.
