Post From: Currency Value Per Tick in Symbol Settings, relative to report in global currency

Thank you; a few more questions about Symbol Settings:

1) I plan to conduct all trading & reporting on basis of UTC +0 timezone. I have the Time Zone set as UTC +0 in Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings; in Global Symbol Settings 'Intraday' tab, most/all instruments are set as New York/Eastern. Do I need to change the Time Zone to UTC +0 for each Symbol that I plan to monitor/trade, or will SC convert times automatically?

2) I have custom trading hours for each Symbol planned for use - if trading at ACSIL level, should I set those in Evening Start/End Times and enable 'Use Evening Session Times', while leaving Session Start/End as-default? If so, is there an ACSIL function to get the Evening S/E times and/or only allow trading within that timeframe? I could use a simple timer if not, of course...actually I figure this is not the purpose of Evening Session times. In a Spreadsheet System for Trading, I can obviously use cells J86-87.

I assume that changing Session S/E would mess up historical charts, etc.
