Hi I am in the UK so my charts show my local time but I want to chart US Futures. How can I set Sierra Chart to automatically take account of Daylight Savings time? For example, the Chicago Pit usually opens at 14:30 UK time but due to daylight savings now opens at 13:30 UK time. I have a chart which I only want to show the Pit hours so I set this to start at 14:30 but now it is missing the first hour of Pit trading since the clocks changed. Is this the correct way to chart only the pit session? I do not want to change the start time to 13:30 since all previous sessions will have the wrong start time. In Data/Trade Service Settings I have Time Zone set to "London (+0 GMT/+1 BST)" How can I fix this? I just want to know the correct way to automatically adjust Daylight Savings time to show the Pit Session. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-10-28 14:46:00

My Computer clock is correct and is set to automatically adjust for DST, I have gone through the steps here: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/helpdetails38.html But still, because I want to only display the Pit Session I am achieving this by setting the start time of the chart to my local start time but when the time difference between UK and NY changes (from 5 hours ahead to only 4 hours since the clocks in the UK went back on 26 October) the charts are starting an hour later than they should. So the problem originates from the fact that the chart has a fixed start time (14:30). I hope the issue is clear. Ben Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-10-28 15:47:52

Refer to this page: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_TimeZone.html Either change the global time zone in Sierra Chart to a US time zone or change the time zone for the individual chart to a US time zone. There absolutely is no other possibility to accomplish this. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

You cannot change that. In what country uses daylight savings time different than one hour?
