Adjust Dukascopy tick time in order to match FxPro prices
Posted: Wed Jun 27, 2018 5:05 pm
I wanted to have FxPro historical tick more than anything but I couldn't get it no matter what I did so I have to use Dukascopy historical data.
But the thing is when I compare Dukascopy bid or ask prices with FxPro price at the same time they do not match!
For example I want to check 2018.5.29 close price. So in generated csv file I look for the last bid price in 2018.5.29 and comparev it with FxPro MT4 2018.5.29 last candle close price. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME !!
So I went ahead and guesses that maybe it has something to do with the time column in data acquired from Dukascopy.
I'm aware that one can adjust timezone in TickStory but I do not know what is the right offset.
I figured that when GMT is 16:55:30 the market watch in FxPro MT4 Platform shows 19:55:30
So how to synchronize Dukascopy historical data time with FxPro MT4 Platform time ?
(I don't suppose it would matter that where I live or what my current time is)
