Can you answer a question, the binance extension that provides the data, if it takes the data from binance in fact, it should not give a difference in price, or at least an acceptable difference, but I took an example that gives a considerable difference in price, why does this happen? can you solve it? this influences a lot in the creation of strategies and backtest.

pay attention to ohlc.

There seems to be a few hours difference here, what time zone does TV display the bars in? The data looks the same but just offset a few hours. Also keep in mind WL stamps the bars with the end of the period.

The TV time zone is UTC -3 (lower right), but WealthLab always time stamps in the market time zone, which is simply UTC (-0) for cryptos.

And, as Glitch mentioned, WealthLab's convention for timestamps is END-of-bar, whereas just about everyone else in the world is START-of-bar.

In short, move your WealthLab pointer to the right 4 bars and compare.

There's nothing to fix here.

But you could probably create a New Market for your cryptos in Tools > Markets & Symbols, setting its Base Time Zone to your heart's content, and then re-assign the crypto symbol names to this new market. I presume it's documented in the Help.

I've adjusted the times but it's still 1 hour late.

The values are correct but the candle is at the wrong time, an hour apart.

We'll just repeat what we said before, but it would be easier if you read our responses.

It also could be that I'm not sure what you mean.

I can't see where you've "adjusted the times" because the chart still shows the canned Cryptos market which is immutable. To reiterate, you can find a workaround in Post #4.

Cypher please read Post #2 carefully.

The take away is that in WL the time of a bar that is reported is the END TIME not the START TIME.
