Hi all,
I’ve been using two platforms for trading forex over the years, MT4 and FXCM Trading Station.
Work on some system of mine at the moment and realised, that for trying certain options I need to have Daily Bar start at some other time, not the time given to me by broker. To put it clearer - I want to be able to set the Daily Bar start to any time of the day I want, say 10am. I’ve contacted an MT4 trader, known to me for his tweaking the MT4 settings and programming his own tweaks, but he said IT CANNOT BE DONE. Does anyone know of any forex trading platform, which gives the trader this option?
Would greatly appreciate any feedback on this question.

Hello Alex.
Im pretty sure that other trader was right… It cant be done.
Hi Alex,
Contacting a programmer may work. A programmer can build custom candles for you as a ‘script’ or as an ‘indicator’ for some compensation.
Here is a good programmer.

Thank you. I might consider it after all.
Ninja Trader technical support confirmed their platform can give me this feature. I am not sure I can ever get used to the look of their charts, though. Looks a bit unfriendly after Trading station.
Also cTrader. Live chat rep insisted this Daily Bar change is possible on their platform I hope they understood what I meant. Will continue searching. By the way Trading station confirmed they can give me several different times for daily bar start time, but not the times I need.
If you are looking for trading station II by FXCM, here is a great resource to explore.
