TimeLocal()  you can read the documentation 

[William Roeder]

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

Either,  LocalTime() is the time on your PCs clock,  did you read the documentation ?

i have just test it ,it should be local time .

int init()    
{ 
Print(TimeLocal()-(D'2013.02.23 20:30'));
//Print(TimeCurrent()-(D'2013.02.23 20:30'));
return(0);  
}

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'
