Hi Tomasz,

can u please explain which settings should I use in order to correctly
compress intraday data in daily bars using IB data source for asian,
european and american time zones?
With two zones I can do it, but with 3 I cannot.
I can setup my local time to any time , that's not a problem, if
necessary.

I tried many times but I still cannot.

Thanks

Ly
