Higher time frame candlestick on a lower time frame chart

Hola Pableitor
Tuve ocasion de ver tu indicador hace tiempo, me parecio una obra de arte, seriamente… Yo estuve intentando hacer una modificacion en el indicador, que veo que no es posible… me refiero a que si uno representa el valor de open y del close en heikin ashi y en MTF (unicamente le das un valor al heikinashiopen y heikinashiclose, y le aplicas “return heikinashiopen, heikinashiclose”), en uno te da una linea multitimefame y en otra te sale una linea discontinua y no multitimeframe
Sabes como se puede modificar eso, para que ambas salgan como lineas multitimeframe rectas, por ejemplo, si haces un MTF diario en velas de 1hora, y hay 23h (no 24) te saldria una vela recta en 23h como representacion del dia y luego un salto y linea recta para las siguientes 23hs…
y porque no reconoce MTF en 1minuto, si lo hace en 2min (si usas segundos)? y como harias MTF diario en velas de 1hora, dado que a veces no coincide?

Hello Pableitor
It wasgreat to see your indicator a long time ago, it looked like a work of art to me … I was trying to make a modification, which I see is not possible… if one represents the value of open and close in heikin ashi and in MTF (you only give a value to heikinashiopen and heikinashiclose, and apply “return heikinashiopen, heikinashiclose” to see it plotted on teh chart), it gives you a multitimeframe straight line but also an irregular line and not a multitimeframe for each of them (heikinashiopen, heikinashiclose).

Hey Pableitor, thx vm for the code, I just logged in for a minute, will try it later to show you what I mean, I still dont know how to post pics here, but basically its as if one wanted to put, instead of candles, a continuous line like an average, but for heikin ashi open, and close, with its respective color, and a median made of it. thanks a lot, you are an artist, your indicator are one of the best I have seen. Cheers, mate

Hi Pableitor, How are you doing mate? Hope all is well… I had to change the code (with your premission) I had the same problem, the problem is to estimate or count the hours to get the correct daily candle and get the candle data, but couldt get the xopen and xclose via return line
All I got was this, unfortunately xopen and xclose didnt show up as a constant line, but as irregular ones; also, if i used the code on a 10second chart but putting 1 minute timeframe, it returned nothing , but did got a chart if I switched it to “TimeframeHAminutes = 2 ”
Anyway your indicator is excellent, its a pity I cannot get the 1minute and daily data using your code, it didnt pan out

Hi Pableitor, I tried to run the code but it didnt work out, maybe due to a new PRT version? I cannot get the code MTF on 1 minute, yes in 2min but not on 1min in case I want to use tick or charts in seconds. Cheers, VS

Hi Pableitor, steve
Pableitor, hope you are fine. The thing is that when using the drawsegment and drawcandle command, one cannot get the chart in 1min as we did in the original code, its not a continous line, i mean, if we are on 15min timeframe chart and we set the inidcator timeframe on 60mins, the darwsegment and drawdcandle shall be a straight line for 4 candles (4candles x 15min = 1 candle 60min).
Hi Steve
I think you can change the brightness directly in the chart, no coding is necessary, just change the features in the platform
DRAWSEGMENT(x2,y1,x2,y2)coloured(r,g,0)
DRAWCANDLE(xopen,xopen,xclose,xclose) COLOURED(R,G,0,40) BORDERCOLOR(R,G,0,40)

Hi Pableitor, the code is just great; i was playing a lil bit with these factors, darwsegment and drawcandle, the problem lies in centering the candle, in making y1=haopen and y2=haclose plotting lilke y1=haopen[1] and y2=haclose[1], I think it depends on PRT kernel maybe… but what I couldnt solve was the 1 min thing… sometimes 2min is better, its a proxy for 5mins, 1min has too much volatility and opportunities, but sometimes 2min is too big for a shorter TF like 3 or 5sec that is similar to a CME MBO (Market-By-Order) chart, ideal for scalping.
