Local, Candle, and Broker Time indicator

Post by Radar »

Hey Gang,

I've had this indicator for a while, "b-clock_TRO_MODIFIED_VERSION.mq4, and recently modified it to show local time (Lime) and broker time (Red).

Thought it might come in handy... Try it, it will save you wondering why your questions about time keep disappearing from Steve's threads ;)


Have fun!

edit 5th Feb 2015... Added GMT Offsets to the display... Current version now displays...

Local Time
Local GMT Offset
Remaining Bar Time (for MN1 bars, it shows Weeks, Days, Hours, Minutes, & Seconds remaining)
Current Bid, + Symbol
Broker Time
Broker's GMT Offset
GMT

If you have any problems with the indicator, just drop a line in here, and I'll sort it out :)

Thanks, Tommaso :)

I have to make a minor change, as I uploaded the wrong one :(

Could you remove your fixed version, as it is based on a version that is for a closed group.

Have fun!

Hi all
How do you explain and fix ;) the fact that with above indi GMT time is 12h30min ahead or 11h30 min behind.
I am in central Europe, use a GP-Demo account and the Indi shows my actual time 10:12, D1 Bar end in 767 min, broker time 11.12 and GMT 23:42
Any suggestion? Thanks Mike

Hey Mike,

Sorry for the late reply... Haven't checked my email in a while.

I see that Tommaso has posted an indicator that will do the trick for you (thanks, Tommaso) :)

The indicator in post 1 shows the date, as well as the time in 24hour format, so, as long as you put your local GMT offset in the settings, you will be able to tell if your broker is +/- GMT ;)

Have fun!

Update in post 1...

Added GMT offsets for local and broker times (both will show either a + or - sign, as appropriate).

Have fun!
