See subject. Basically, if you wanted to show the VbP from start time to end time gold chart in different sessions, you have to annoyingly change the start/end time to correspond to various timezone adjustments throughout the year. It would be nice if there was a timezone that applied to those times, which defaults to the chart timezone. Alternatively, if you have a suggestion on how to create my own VbP study, that would be fine but I don't believe this is possible. |

What you need to do is set the chart to the time zone of the exchange and it is fine to use either US Central Time or Eastern Time. You will never have to change, any of the Session times. And there are not various time zone adjustments throughout the year. There is just simply the change from daylight savings time on and off, but that does not change at all the session times for CME futures. Those are 100% stable as long as you are using US Central or Eastern Time. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

I'm not a timezones expert but are you saying that if my chart time zone is America/new York I don't need to adjust any times if I'm displaying also London and Tokyo profiles? I must be misunderstanding the setup you're suggesting.
