Hello all,

Maybe a stupid question but I don't get it.
I've created a chart on Micro-GOLD (MGCM23_FUT_CME) and in the chart settings - Session Times - , I see:

session start time = 18:00:00
session end time = 17:59:59
evening start time = 00:00:00
evening end time = 23:59:59

Is this correct? The trading session shouldn't start in the morning?
I'm asking because I wanna plot a volume profile (multiple profiles based on fixed time)

Thank you

That is not correct. You will need to modify those session times for what you need. Refer to the information here for Session Times:
Chart Session Times


We will have to see why those are set as the default times.

these settings are so even I click the button "update from server".

so, I need to enter session start time 09:30 and so on?

thanks

These are the standard default session times for CME futures:
session start time = 18:00:00
session end time = 17:59:59
evening start time = 00:00:00
evening end time = 23:59:59

What this simply means is that the evening session times are unset. And the standard session start and end, are according to the 18:00 US Eastern time open for CME futures.

Hi, can you please tell me if anyone is working on this small issue?
I wish the "symbol settings" to come with correct values.

Appreciate it!

No, the current Session Times will remain and are the defaults for CME related futures.

You can change them if you want:
