    Time in chart differs by 1 bar for FXCM rates

    Hi,

    Below a screenshot from the FXCM program which shows rates for a given UTC date/time range.
    My time zone is CET [+1 hour].

    This means, a rate for 16:00 UTC should be 17:00 CET. The fact is, NT 7 [64-bit 7.0.1000.39] shows it at 17:10 - I found out, this is always the "size" of 1 bar - in my case: 10 min. NT uses the local time, which is - as mentioned above - CET.

    What is going on, how can I fix it? I have set FXCM as the history server - other screenshot.

    Thank you, Peter

    This are the rates delivered directly from FXCM for a sample date/time.

    NT should show these rates at 17:00, but it shows it for 17:10, what is definitely wrong. The rates [bid open, bid high, bid low, bid close] are the same and prove the correct bar is checked.

    Hello Peter-VARGA,

    Thanks for posting.


    Based on your screenshot, it looks like a 10 minute chart is in use. NinjaTrader is hard-coded to always timestamp bars at the end of the bar.
