Candlestick Closing time

[WokMan]

Hi..

Newbie question

Is there a way to find out how much time is left in a candlestick before it switches to the next one.  I am assuming it is a standard setting somewhere that i am missing 

 

Tnx

Also have the same question. I don't see it anywhere as an option.

Me too, why is it not visible ???

i think i know the answer..  all candlesticks run by on the hour..  

So 1H  is applicable from 10-11, 11-12, 12-1

30M is 10-10:30; 10:30-11, 11-11:30. 11:30-12 

all based on GMT.  

5 mins slots run in the same way.      

IG's 'Day' timeframe is  midnight to midnight (atleast in the UK)

unfortunately the candle countdown function is not yet available on the IG platform;

I am in the US and Do not see the daily candles appearing in the window of time from 5:00pm to 9:00pm New York Time. Is there a setting that I must enter for my time zone?

As per my understanding, a 'Day' is a 24 hour cycle irrespective of where you are.. not a session.  So on my settings in the UK, i get it from midnight to midnight rather than London session.  So i suspct you are getting a mid-night to midnight East Coast..
