#define HR2400 86400 // 24 * 3600 int TimeOfDay(datetime when){ return( when % HR2400 ); } datetime DateOfDay(datetime when){ return( when - TimeOfDay(when) ); }

Question was "refers mt4 severtime or my local time"
This moment it is weekend and the chart of your MT4 platform is not updating new bars
The chart is running the time of your broker Datetime is just a counting of seconds from moment 1 jan 1970 (check it to be sure)
We living on a world where we didn't start all same moment with 1 jan 1970
but we all pass a moment we arrive D'2013.02.23 20:30'
