## Session Open Calibration[​](#session-open-calibration "Direct link to Session Open Calibration")

To ensure your Daily Open benchmark aligns precisely with the European or London Open:

* Check your broker's server time zone against UTC:

  

  * Most MT4 brokers operate on **UTC+2** (Winter) and **UTC+3** (Summer / DST).
  * London Open occurs at **07:00 UTC** (08:00 BST).
  * On a typical UTC+2 broker, London Open corresponds to **09:00 server time** (`InpOpenHour = 9`).
  * If your broker runs on UTC+0, set `InpOpenHour = 7` or `8`.
