Common comparison error
Changing the displayed clock without an explicit zone is not reliable localization; UTC meaning, daylight saving, venue time, and history must stay aligned.

Time-zone localization
Displaying schedules, event times, histories, and expiries in a clearly identified local or server time zone.
Practical use
How to verify Time-zone localization
Read Time-zone localization together with Expiry countdown, Localization quality, Chart interval. The comparison must preserve the exact rule, value, state, and evidence described below.
A neutral example
A 14:30 UTC release renders as 09:30 New York before daylight saving and 10:30 after the transition. The interface shows the zone explicitly and preserves the same instant in history.

Where to verify Time-zone localization
Use the source that governs the exact contract, account, entity, or platform state. A general definition cannot replace current broker terms.
