Change Timeframe limits

New comment
 

Hi everybody,

I searched for it and couldn't find a satisfying answer.

Does anyone know if it is possible to change the default limits of a timeframe?

For example for H4 instead of having: 0-4, 4-8, 8-12, etc. -> 2-6, 6-10, 10-14, etc.

Thank you for your help!

No, these are universal settings amongst all brokers.

Perhaps not.

I didn't know of that case William, I was speaking for most brokers and pairs.

Alright, thanks for your reply. I am moving from Tradesignal to metatrader for a friend and I know that, there, his 4h graphs are from 2-6, 6-10, etc.
However I don't know if this is standard or if the bar boundaries are customizable..

No, there aren't customizable, if a broker has it different like William said above, it will be fixed.

Oh ok, so the broker decides. I get it now.

I'll check where's the data from.

Thanks again.
