For Daylight Savings time that happens in a few days on March 12 when time is moved 1 hour ahead what do I change my session times to? Currently my Session Start Time is 22:00:10 and my Session End Time is 22:00:00. Would I change my Session Start Time to 23:00:10 and my Session End Time to 23:00:00 for the Daylight Savings Time change or would I change it to a different time? |

We assume that you are not in the US and that your time zone is your local time zone. In which case, the US will have moved forward by 1 hour, relative to your time. This means that you would have to move your times back by 1 hour to keep the same time relative to the US. For example, if your chart Start time is 22:00:00 which is 09:00:00 in the US, then when the US moves forward, 22:00:00 in your time zone is now 10:00:00 in the US. Therefore, to reference 09:00:00 in the US, you would need to set your Start Time to 21:00:00.
