Post From: Do I need to synchronize my chart timing?

Advice please: 1.) I'm using SierraChart for charting and real time forex data but I execute trades on an unrelated company's platform. There is a price difference by a fraction of pips, and possibly more at varying times, between the two. 2.) Also the formation of the candles is a bit off between my PC's Clock and the Sierra's candles' closing by approximately a 20 to 40 seconds. A.) Could either of these two issues be caused by the need to sync my PC's clock with SierraChart? B.) If so, can I do this manually within a certain tollerance? I didn't find how to do this in the help documentation. C.) I saw that a third party software I can download to perform for syncing is suggested in the help documentation. If you recommend that I install it, I'll try to do so. However, I don't know if installation of that software is warranted or if I can install it and use it successfully. Thank you in advance! (I won't thank you again with another email after your reply as I accidentally did before, sorry.) William Awty
