Hello Stearno,
Thank you for your post.
The timestamp on the data is native to the servers, however this is converted by NinjaTrader to represent your PC Clock time.

What happens if change PC clock?

For example, let us say I am living in +4 GMT and my PC is set to +4 GMT Timezone. I download all the historical data.
Then, I move to the US and in -4 GMT timezone. I download the latest week worth of historical data. What will happen? Will it change the previous data or will it show a huge gap in price on the chart as it just sandwiched two different timezones together.
Reason I ask about timestamps is is because FXCM has changed their server time to be US Eastern timezone. I am backtesting a strategy on a PC's setting of +4 GMT timezone and determined the best trading hours are 11-18 hours. I needed to be sure I know the timezone of the historical data, so I know what hours to trade when I go live.
Thanks.
