So I live in UTC zone and trade US futures.

I have noticed that the Daily P&L is not correct, and today I understood what is happening.

I live on UTC timezone, and trade futures with the symbol and chart set to proper US timezones. SierraChart itself is configured to my computers timezone ( UTC ). So for example ES, which has session to end at around 16:15, will display the daily P&L of the day till 16:15 but in my UTC timezone, not the instrument timezone of New York.

So to summarize:
Instrument is configured to end session time at say 16:15 New York timezone. The daily P&L to me will include the previous day and trades till 16:15 of my timezone: UTC.

Is it possible to do the daily P&L follow the timezone of the instrument and chart, so that it ends when instrument really opens and closes ?

Thanks for the great platform !
