I have been given two different answers from different Live Chat Support staff and need to confirm the correct time stamp. Is it Daylight Saving Eastern Time or Eastern Time??

But, yes, our historical data is in Eastern time and our times move back and forth from daylight savings time as the seasons occur. Tim
