While we dont suspect anything would happen with your ANVIL session, we strongly advise you to keep your local system time up to date and accurate. If you’re using 3rd party applications, under certain circumstances time discrepancies in your local system may impact 3rd party applications. ANVIL however, sources its system time from the market data server it connects to. Our system time is extremely accurate as it uses a time server synchronization process that is linked to multiple satellites.
