  Hi, I followed the video on how to export the historical data. I am using blackbull markets for my demo. This is 3 hours ahead of GMT in my Metatrader. So I have set it 3 hours ahead and loaded the data. When I compare the price chart against Metatrader as per the video it is still 3hours behind. It has not changed the timezone in the historical data app.
  
  Can anybody help?

  Hey timaddamz,
  
  From what I can understand is that this might be happening as the historical data is set to GMT +0 by default and probably this is the reason you see the difference.
  
  Kind Regards,

  It is supposed to be updated to coincide with your broker data. It does not. Up to the hours you can easily adapt the data by just moving everything 3 hours up/down, but that does not work for 4h, 1D. That data will then have to be reworked from hourly data. I do not think it is worth my while.
