Historical data

[lancasterstephen]

Hi
When you download historical data for backtesting purposes, what time is the data converted to?
If I've set my timezone to UTC under Tools>Options>General, will the bar data be shown as UTC?

Thanks

Hello lancasterstephen,

Thanks for your post.

When historical data is imported on the platform, it will be translated from the timezone set when importing to the timezone set in the Tools > Options menu of the Control Center under General.

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

Hi Jim, When I imported historical data and had previously set my timezone, the data did not update. Please advise where I can find more information on data importing. Thanks Ed K.
