    Hello. I am trying to change the hourly close to follow the market hours instead of clock hours. For example, if the market opens 8:30, I want the hour to correctly close at 9:30 instead of using clock hours to close at 9:00. How do I make this change? Thanks

    The Platform does not allow the change you want.

    Chart timeframes are tied to clock times.

    Thanks for the reply. Is there a workaround, for example using an indicator to make a chart?

    You could use an Indicator running on the 30 minute Timeframe and set a Flag to give 1 every even number of bars and then set an Alert on the Flag = 1 so then you get audible warning at each hourly interval etc?

    Above is just ideas to spark-off your mind as it’s difficult not knowing exactly what you are trying to achieve.

    How about using …

    If 30 minute = 2 OR 30 minute = 4 OR 30 min …. Then // up to 48 x 30 mins in 24 hour period.
