Hello,

I am trying to change the time stamps on my orders for journal purposes. Currently my orders (Under my Activity Log) are stating times of 15:31 instead of 09:31

Could you assist me on how to change this to EST?

Thank you.

The times that are displayed in the Trade Activity Log are set to the Global Time Zone that is set for that installation of Sierra Chart. Refer to the following regarding the Global Time Zone:
Time Zone Setting

If you are referring to exported data, then there are two options to export the data, one that will put the times in UTC and another that will leave the times as they are displayed in the Trade Activity Log.

Refer to the following:
Trade Activity Log: Importing and Exporting Data
