Hi

How to convert below into readable format ?

41861.003287037
41855.001458333

I was trying this but did not work

strftime(strptime(Close"%m/%e/%Y %l:%M:%S %p"),"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")

Regards

Try something like this (assuming this is excel date )

strftime((Close-25569)*86400 ,"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")

The base for excel date time is 1/1/1900 and for epoch is 1/1/1970, the 25569 is the adjustment of dates (for 70 years). Multiplication by 86400 is to convert days into seconds (excel shows in days, epoch in seconds)

What do those numbers represent? They certainly are not time strings in the format shown in your strptime command.
