Is there any support please on how I go about setting my Forex charts to open and close in line with the US New York Closing times?

I am in UK on GMT and my charts on Sierra Chart (Forex) are very different to my MT4 brokers charts and I'm trying to align them. The MT4 ones are based on the US New York Close and I am not sure what settings I need to use to replicate it.

Refer to the documentation here for this:
Chart Session Times: Creating Daily Bars with Custom Session Times

Also the historical daily Forex data does start bars at 17:00 US Eastern time.
