Answer |
This week the U.S. is not yet on Day
Light Savings time. Our clients in time zones GMT and GMT+1 are on
Daylight Saving Time. This phenomenon occurs every year about this time
for one week.
Users in time zone GMT or GMT+1 must temporary adjust their "time zone"
setting in Setup: Preferences: Sessions. If you are in GMT then set your
time zone to GMT+1. If you are in GMT+1, set it to GMT+2. IRT will ask
if you wish to adjust all session times. YOU MUST REPLY "NO".
When the U.S. goes on Daylight Savings Time the following Sunday, you
must set the time zone setting back the way it was, again replying NO
when asked about adjusting session times.
If you follow US listed instruments, then you will also have to adjust
your US Stocks session start and stop time temporarily to start and stop
one hour later than normally. Set these back again when the U.S. goes
on daylight saving time. |
