NakedMarkets Forum

It seems that news events are not displayed at the right time. See screenshot below, of the Nasdaq (USA 100 Index, NakedMarket broker), set to New-York (EST) timezone, 30 minutes timeframe. The US CPI on the 11th May 2022 was released at 8:30 AM NY time (as it always is), and you can see in the screenshot the corresponding drop at 8:30. However, the news is shown at 9:30. In this backtest, it appears all news are shifted by an hour like so...

This behavior can be observed on other symbols as well, I just checked it, EURUSD for instance.

Thank you

Hello,

It depends on the GMT you have set in your Backtest configuration during its creation.
You can shift the time with it. However, it could be related to the DST.
We will check that, thanks.

I've made a couple tests myself and I believe it has to do with each symbol's data own timeshift. For instance If I create new backtests with exactly the same time zone settings but two different symbols (Like NAS100 from forex.com and US100 from NakeMarkets), the shift will appear for one and not the other.
