Dear Friends, why do MT4 and PRT have different body and wick lengths for the same time interval? Is there a way to sync them please? Thx.

igoren – Welcome to the forums.

There are some simple rules that everyone who posts in the forum should follow. You have broken quite a few of them! 🙂
1. Make sure that you always post in the correct forum – your question is about how the platform presents candles and so the ‘Welcome New Members’ forum is not the place for it. I have moved it to the platform support forum.
2. Do not ever double post. You posted an identical question in another topic. Double posting wastes the time of those reading the forums and the time of those trying to help you and just leads to general confusion.
3. Do not revive very old threads with questions that are not really a continuation of the discussion. Start a new topic with your fresh question (after using the search box to make sure that it has not already been answered and that there is not already a topic that you could add to on the same subject)
I will delete your double post in an old topic.

To answer your question. It is because they do not use the same data sources. It is also possible that they do not use the same times for the start and the end of the candle. If you are using IG then PRT just reproduce the IG data provided to them and IG have decided to have six day weeks to include Sunday data.

You should compare broker’s data first. CFD brokers usually dont have the same exact candlesticks OHLC prices.
