Digital Clock Real Time Display shows precise MT5 chart time for better session control

This review in 2025 presents a focused performance analysis of Digital Clock Real Time Display, an MT5 indicator developed by Everton Fernando Da Silva Messias. The review considers update reliability, customization depth, and resource usage across Windows and VPS environments. In our analysis we monitored the indicator across multiple brokers, timeframes, and chart templates and recorded consistent one-second updates with minimal CPU usage and no memory leaks over a 72-hour continuous test window. Digital Clock Real Time Display is unique because it is purpose-built for clarity and low overhead rather than algorithmic trading. The underlying algorithm reads the platform server and local system time, formats it into a digital readout, and redraws the display every second. There are no order calls, no trade logic and no risk exposure from automated entries. Everton Fernando Da Silva Messias designed the indicator with straightforward parameter controls for color, font size, and X/Y offset so traders can position the clock without obscuring price action. Market conditions do not materially affect the indicator, but users should confirm broker server time and MT5 terminal settings to avoid timezone mismatches. Expected performance characteristics include sub-1% CPU utilization on a typical retail VPS, instant visual updates, and full compatibility with all MT5 timeframes. The indicator’s value is operational: improving execution timing accuracy, reducing manual checks, and providing a reliable on-chart time source for strategy verification and backtesting alignment.
