\n\t\t\t\t\tDear Trader,<\/b> \n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\tOn Sunday the 12th of March, 2017 IC Markets<\/b><\/font> Metatrader 4 server times will move forwards by one hour from GMT + 2 to GMT + 3. \n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\tThis change is to reflect the US Eastern Standard Time change taking place on the 12th of March, 2017. IC Markets Metatrader 4 server time is based on “5 pm New York”<\/font><\/b> . As the time in the US will move forwards by one hour IC Markets server times will also move forwards to reflect the change. 
\n\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\tHow does this change affect you?
\n\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\tAs the time in the market watch window will now be set at GMT + 3<\/b><\/font> , depending on your time zone you may also notice the market open one hour earlier on Monday morning. The charts will still show an opening time of 00:00 platform time. Some EA’s using GMT offset may also be affected by this change. You should make the necessary adjustments to the GMT offset in your EA settings prior to the 12th of March. 
\n\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\tThe GMT offset explained
