This is too vague for us to help with.

Go to Global Settings-Data/Trade Service Settings and make sure you have set your correct time zone

ESH20

the problem is i changed the session settings 1 hour back because clock moved 1 hour back (at my time zone it was 16:30 RTH start and now 15:30)
but all the previous profiles change also and are not correct now
there must be a way to fix it when time changes to change from current date without changing the previous profiles that started from 16:30

example attached

maybe there is a way to adjust SC that the session settings will change automatically without me needed to change them when the clock moves ?

What your attempting to do won't work.

Set your charts to be in the time zone of the exchange your trading and no more problems.

The time zone of that chart must be set to a US time zone. There simply is no other possibility. And the Session Times have to correspond to the time zone. Instructions:
