24 hour data charting in Australia

Hi Ron,
I have never used the MarketCast datafeed before, but, 99% of all live 
datafeeds coming into Australia stamp the tick with a London or GMT+0 time 
stamp. I have had the same problems with the Reuters and old Telerate 
(Bridge) among others.  To solve it, you generally need to set your PC up 
with a GMT or London time and set the SPI setting at GMT+10. Ron, it sounds 
weird (and it is) but this will solve most of your troubles. As a worse 
case scenario contact Deb York at QBL in Sydney as she is the TS setup guru 
in Oz.

P.S. That Gann crap doesn't work. Never has, never will.

Hello everyone,
I've recently install TS 2000i and I'm using Metaserver with MarketCast 
(DBC) for data collection. I'm located in Australia . The problem I'm 
experiencing is I can only chart data from 0:00 to 7:00. I've checked the 
data that is being displayed as a chart against another program and the 
prices and times match. I have set the 'History to save' to 1 tick and 200 
days. The session times I've set to 0:00 to 23:59  the program accepted 
these setting ie I didn't get the 'session overlap error message' I've set 
the time to + 10:00  from GMT. I cannot get any of the day session to chart 
the share market trades from 10:00 to 16:00 and the Futures market trades 
from 9:50 to 16:30 then reopens at 17:10 and trades through to 7:00 the 
next morning.

Could someone assist me in getting the settings right so I can chart the 
markets 24 hours.

Thanking you
ron
