Function [on Timer]

[duepips]

Hi, can anyone help me understand how On Timer on MT5 is processed? I understand that it starts counting from when it is attached to the graph and that it is not synchronized with the server seconds and that it passes once every 60 seconds obviously if set to 60 seconds. Is there the possibility to synchronize it with the server time so that it goes hand in hand with the Ticks? Then one more thing, I tried the Change Timer Period block but I don't understand what it does! If I have the Timer set to 60 seconds, what does the block do add the set times or update the Timer? Thanks

@duepips Are you sure it is not synchronized with the server? I tried it many times on MT4 and it is correctly synchronized. The 'Change Timer Period' block change that 60 seconds period to any other waht you wish in seconds too.

no unfortunately it goes by itself, if set to 60 seconds and load the Change Period Timer block for example at 30 seconds it passes once to 60 and the next after 30, it has no logic

@duepips Then you should contact the admin to let him know. Is it apparently a bug.
