Feature request: Option to use Symbol timezone for Trade Activity Log timestamp

From my understanding, all Trade Activity Log data is timestamped using the Global Timezone setting.

I'd like to request an option to use the Symbol specific timezone for the date/timestamp in the Trade Log.

The issue for me is I trade instruments across 4 timezones (Aus, Japan, Hong Kong, US), so when when importing the log to my journaling software, the date/times are mostly meaningless and I'm wasting time adjusting the date/time back to the instrument's local time.

This is not something we would add. We are not going to be adding further complications and endless problems which are going to arise from this. It is out of the question.

The only thing that we could do is add a separate time zone setting for the entire Trade Activity Log.

Yes this would be very useful, if not the ideal solution.
