Highcharts - date on xAxis label difference on tooltip - highcharts

I have a problem with HighCharts xAxis label. Date on xAxis label difference on tooltip and there are have 2 gridLine on a tick point. I thing have problem with json data but I don't know why.
Here is my code http://jsfiddle.net/jevgzgjx/1/
My data as a json array with timestamp:
var json = [[[1362783600000,5691],[1362870000000,6503],[1362956400000,15574],[1363042800000,16211],[1363129200000,16427],[1363215600000,16486],[1363302000000,14737],[1363388400000,5838],[1363474800000,5542],[1363561200000,15560],[1363647600000,18940]],[[1362783600000,4346],[1362870000000,4112],[1362956400000,11356],[1363042800000,11876],[1363129200000,11966],[1363215600000,12086],[1363302000000,10916],[1363388400000,4507],[1363474800000,4202],[1363561200000,11523],[1363647600000,14431]]];

The problem here is that your timestamps are all for 23:00 (11pm). Therefore the point is being drawn slightly to the left of each grid line (since the gridline is for 00:00 each day). It also causes the tooltip of each point to show the day before, since the point is in fact not on the day that the gridline displays, but one hour prior to that.
You can visualize this problem by modifying dateTimeLabelFormats, so that the hours are shown in the tooltip, like this (see this JSFiddle):
dateTimeLabelFormats: {
day:"%A, %b %e, %Y, %H:%M"
}
I'm not sure about the origin of your problem, but it can be solved by adding 3600000 (one hour in ms) to all your timestamps. The problem may be timezone related as timestamps in Highcharts are treated as UTC by default, so look into getting your timestamps in UTC as well.
If you use Date objects you can specify the timezone before getting the timestamp. You can disable using UTC by default with global.useUTC: false (API), but then you'll risk ending up with different results depending on where you are viewing the chart.

Highchart setextreme plots 1 day less in different timezone

I have a line chart plotted using Highchart as shown in below fiddle:
https://jsfiddle.net/48e0mngq/1/
Now In above fiddle, I have two text boxes which accepts from and to date in (yyyy/mm/dd) format. And when user click on the "Set" button, X-Axis extreme should set accordingly. This is how I set the extremes:
$('#set').click(function(){
var start = Date.parse($('#startDate').val());
var end = Date.parse($('#endDate').val());
console.log(start);
console.log(end);
chart.xAxis[0].setExtremes(start, end);
});
But its behavior differs on different timezones.
For example, my timezone in "India Standard Time" in this time zone it plots one day less than date selected and in EST timezone it works fine.
Is there any workaround to get rid of this?

generate candle point for empty date

Is there a way to create an empty point for the dates which are not included in the data?
Tried to use pointInterval: 24*3600*1000, but doesn't have any result.
In this example we have a gap between 31th July and 7th August which I would like to fill with empty points.

You need to set ordinal: false as an option on the xAxis. Like this:
xAxis: {
ordinal: false
}
API on xAxis.ordinal: https://api.highcharts.com/highstock/xAxis.ordinal
In an ordinal axis, the points are equally spaced in the chart regardless of the actual time or x distance between them. This means that missing data for nights or weekends will not take up space in the chart.
Defaults to true.
Working example: http://jsfiddle.net/phLz68r9/

Highstocks ordinal xAxis formatting

My case: Plot a stockchart with stock data for 5 days without weekends displaying, each day should have equal space even though data can be irregular.
What i need to do is plot an xAxis with static intervals of one day, however i cant display weekends and the data can be very irregular between the days. I've tried tinkering with tickInterval, tickPositioner but so far no luck.
I can hide weekends with:
ordinal: true,
My current fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/svedino/h9448fk0/1/
Setting the ordinal to false gives me correct interval but with the weekends included.
An example of this kind of graph seems to be working can be found here:

Remove the time between the dates in highstock

My graph is having time between dates.I want to display just the date.
As Highstock is responsive,the time is removed once I minimize the browser and only dates are shown.
I have tried dateTimeLabelFormats in xAxis and tickInterval.
Those doesn't seem to work.
Help is appreciated

Wrong start date in irregular intervals chart

Start date in irregular series is not same with date which is shown on mouse-over tip.
Also, you can check this on HC demo page for Winter serie start date: http://www.highcharts.com/demo/spline-irregular-time
How can I fix this, so both date point to regular one.
TY
There is no error. XAxis labels is calculated for only to fit the screen. There may be no point on label. For this example, time is fragmented per-14-days. If time is too long, may be fragmented more than 14, OR less than 14.
XAxis labels not represent points. It only shows timeInterval.
