Password changing
Here you can change the diary login password. To change, enter the current password and then the new one. Then click on “Change".
Time zone changing
When registering an account, the default time zone is set to UTC+00:00. If you trade in a different time zone, the time format and the periods in which your trades are grouped may display incorrectly relative to your local time.
Exchanges usually use UTC to keep track of time. A day on exchanges begins and ends at 00:00 UTC. If you haven't changed the time settings, your time zone will remain at UTC+00:00, as it is on most exchanges.
You can adjust the time zone for yourself. The specified time will be displayed in the transactions recorded by the diary.
After clicking on the "Change" button, a selection window opens with all the available time zones. Select the desired one and click on it. The data is saved automatically.
Note!
Changing the time zone recalculates your PNL for the entire period. Trades will be regrouped according to the new time zone, and PNL will be recalculated to reflect the new time zone.
The "Sending reports" feature allows you to set up the sending of the report for the previous day to your Telegram account. During setup, you set the sending time according to the time zone of your profile. For example, if the profile is set to the UTC+03:00 time zone and the sending time is 08:00, the reports will arrive at 08:00 local time (UTC+03:00).
If you change the time zone after setting up the "Sending reports", the report distribution time will be adjusted according to the new time zone.
