This is dictated from the "Regional and Language" setup on your computer. In the regional options go to Customize and then to the time tab. There you can change the time format

I think you have to close NT and then reopen it, and it should change the time on the charts.

Oh, I did not know this. Then I would try the following: Please close NinjaTrader and sync your PC clock by double clicking on the clock in the lower right corner of your desktop. Once you have done that, click on Internet Time tab and then click Update. Your PC clock should now be updated and you may restart NinjaTrader.
I hope this will help.

There was a big thread back when 6.5 was the standard about not being able to change your timezone on the charts from say your local time to another.
I have never checked but wonder if they fixed that for NT7?
Maybe one day they'll get around to adding more customization in terms of what the user wants to see in the x axis?
