Configuring Your Timezone for Accurate Sessions
Your timezone setting ensures that all session filters, trade executions, and economic news align with your local time. This prevents errors caused by mismatched session times and allows TradeShields to adjust dynamically for events like market openings and economic news releases.
Steps to configure:
- Go to General Settings and locate the Your timezone input.
- Choose your timezone from the dropdown menu. Options range from GMT-12 to GMT+14, covering all global timezones.
Example: If you’re in New York (GMT-5):
- Select GMT-5 to ensure your trades align with New York market hours.
- Session times like Asia, London, and New York will automatically adjust based on your timezone selection.
Tips:
- Match this setting with your trading platform or broker to avoid discrepancies.
- If you frequently switch locations, update this setting before trading.
