MT4 query

Anyone know how to get my grid date/time to match up with time on candles? For instance, if I go to 21 Jan 00:00 on the grid, the candle on that line reads 04:00. If I go to the 04:00 grid line, the candle above it reads 08:00 etc.

Also, what are these times, are they GMT or ET?

Grateful for advice as I’m finding it very confusing.

If i understood you correctly, you should look at smaller time frame maybe 1 hour time frame.that time is your broker feed center time.

Times are all in GMT—notice the market closed Friday at 20:55, and we know that NY closed at 15:55 EST, and we know NY is 5 hours behind London (GMT), so…yada, yada, yada.

The times on the axis [B]do[/B] match the candle that is on the same grid line. Look at the date/time, find the tick mark at beginning of date, and follow the tick mark and it’s grid line up to a candle. That candle will match the listed date/time along the axis.

Right, am on the tick mark in front of the date using 1 hour chart, the candle on the grid line directly above the tick says 0400! Go to the next grid line and under the tick it says 0400 which is correct. BUT, the candle on the grid line above the tick says 0800! The candles are 4 hours ahead of the grid.

I did suspect that the times might be GMT and the candles Eastern Time, but there is a five hour difference between these time zones, not four.

It’s not worth using the chart unless I can find and explanation for this. I’d be so grateful if someone could put me in the picture.
