**Step 3: Enter Login Credentials**

Now set up the specific connection:

💡 Pro Tip: Correcting the wrong time in the ATAS chart?

Sometimes, after the initial setup, the time in the chart might be shifted (e.g., by 2 hours). Here is how you can fix this time zone error in seconds:

1. Go to the **Settings** in ATAS and select the **Time Zones** option.
2. You can set the time zone either by \"Exchange\" or by \"Symbol\".
3. Find the corresponding exchange (e.g., Eurex) in the list. If there is a \"0\" everywhere under the shift column, click directly into the field.
4. Select **\"Local Time Zone\"** from the drop-down menu.
5. The shift (e.g., a \"2\" for two hours) will now be set correctly automatically, and your chart will display the exact, current trading time again.
