Применение

#define PRINT(A) Print(#A + " = " + (string)(A))

void OnStart()
{  
  PRINT(TimeGMT());
  PRINT(TimeServerGMT());  
}
  
double MathNearest(  double v, double to){ return to * MathRound(v / to); }
double MathRoundDown(double v, double to){ return to * MathFloor(v / to); }
double MathRoundUp(  double v, double to){ return to * MathCeil( v / to); }
int TimeServerGMTOffset(void){
   return (int)MathNearest(TimeCurrent() - TimeGMT(), 1800);
}
datetime TimeServerGMT(void){ return TimeServerGMT(TimeCurrent() ); }
datetime TimeServerGMT(datetime when){
  return when + TimeServerGMTOffset();
}
 
whroeder1:
It's fine if you use it inside OnTick(), but if you need it in OnTimer() or on other code not related to a tick, it's not working.
 
And it's not working in the Strategy Tester.
 

Another thing to keep in mind. Strategy tester time works different vs terminal. It is based on tick time, so TimeCurrent() for example returns not the current timestamp, but time of last tick.

double MathNearest(  double v, double to){ return to * MathRound(v / to); }
double MathRoundDown(double v, double to){ return to * MathFloor(v / to); }
double MathRoundUp(  double v, double to){ return to * MathCeil( v / to); }
int TimeServerGMTOffset(void){
   return (int)MathNearest(TimeCurrent() - TimeGMT(), 1800);
}
datetime TimeServerGMT(void){ return TimeServerGMT(TimeCurrent() ); }
datetime TimeServerGMT(datetime when){
  return when + TimeServerGMTOffset();
}

And should be minus.
