timginter: LOVE the indior!!! Thank you for making it and keeping it for us. . .your time is appreciated!!

Question?
All sessions seemed fine, just now at the beginning on Sydney, session boxes changed back 1 hour. This happened at 2pm PST (California) and the beginning of Sydney.
What occur, do I need to change any setting to compensate?
Thanks.

Thanks for reporting a problem, also. What occurred at 2pm PST? Is there some time alter where you live or where your broker is? Or in Sydney? Did the boxes all move or the Sydney one?
You can manually modify the boxes (...)Mod variables (check the readme please), so a value of 1,1 would move the beginning and the end by one hour into the right.
Let me know how I could recreate the scenario or describe it as comprehensive as possible and I'll think of something to Repair It

Thanks so much with this particular Tim! Just what I wanted,
Easy and elegant#8203;

Tim,
First thank you very much for responding here and via PM.
Perhaps its me and my confusion that is the issue.
I am in California -7:00 GMT
My broker is ATC and they are at GMT 3
NY closes at 5:00pm EST, my time will be 2:00pm GMT
Sydney opens at 2:00pm my period

The chart I am minding was snapped only now, Sydney doesn't open for another 2 hours or so at 2:00pm (Sunday) my time. However on the chart its revealing one candle already since last Fridays market close.

Can you enlightened me on what I am seeing? I am totally confused!

Thanks so much Tim!!

I'd presume the indi draws boxes from close of previous session rather than beginning Additionally, it ends sessions one candle before.

As you have period separator empowered, it is easy to observe the exact same effect each day before. Provided server timing of your broker, MT4 draws roll into a new afternoon at 5 pm EST however, the indi brings it it candle earlier. All sessions likely affect and it has to be something easy to fix code.

Hello Grin,

I think you could be right, here is just another 2 charts.

Chart 1: Market near Friday at which Sessions has NY final one bar early and Sydney beginning 24 hours ancient

Chart 2: Sydney open after weekend and Sessions shifted forwards 1 hour and is currently adjusted

Not a major deal, but it could be nice to fix this if possible. Is this a setting I can correct myself Grin, Tim, or even something in the code?

Because men.

Pardon everybody in replies, I didn't get a notifiion via e-mail.

Thank you for comments, guys.
The indior calculates the GMT offset of your broker and open/close times for each session individually and adjusts it through the session MOD values.

Is that a setting I can adjust myself...

Can it be drawing on the sessions 1 hour too early (shifted to the left) only when you open your charts when the market is closed (like on Chart 1), but drawing them properly when the market is opened (like on Chart 2)? . I made a small modification for Sunday (GMT) market opening in the algorithm, but I will have the ability to test it only after the markets close on Friday GMT. Should work, however...

hi timginter, this is exactly what I always need to search for market session.

Nevertheless the boxes seem to close and open one hour than the true market. I've attached the screenshot.

I am in Singapore and time zone is GMT 8.

Would you or anybody advise me how do I overcome this dilemma to make the boxes open and close accurately on the suitable candle.

Your help is much appreciated! Thanks!
