Hello forum users! I need a screener to keep track of 1 minute EMAs (which ive already coded) but I would like it to also keep track of 5 minute EMAs at the same time. How can I get about doing this?
Thanks
Jem
You can use multi time frame in ProScreener , you can find an example here in the documentation : www.prorealcode.com/documentation/timeframe
Thank you so much! sorry for the long reply, have a nice weekend!
Hello, After experimenting withe the code it seems that you can’t go any lower than 1 hour? I try using TIMEFRAME(5Minutes) and i get an error message suggesting that i replace ‘minutes’ with ‘hour’.
And also, I want to track 1 minute data and 5 minute data, the screener is set to 1 minut so do I need to code in a TIMEFRAME(1minute) aswell as TIMEFRAME(5Minutes)?
Better post it here your code to help you efficiently.
heres the code, i want to be able to track the same ema crosses for 1 minute and 5 minute
Timeframe(5minutes)
Cross3 = (Ema20 crosses over ema50) or (ema20 crosses over ema100) or (ema50 crosses over ema100) or (ema50 crosses over ema200)
Cross4 = (Ema20 crosses under ema50) or (ema20 crosses under ema100) or (ema50 crosses under ema100) or (ema50 crosses under ema200)
Long1 = EMA20 < Ema200
Long2 = EMA20 < Ema100
Long3 = EMA50 < Ema200
Long4 = EMA50 < Ema100
Short1 = EMA20 > Ema200
Short2 = EMA20 > Ema100
Short3 = Ema50 > Ema200
Short4 = Ema50 > Ema100
Cross1 = (Ema20 crosses over ema50) or (ema20 crosses over ema100) or (ema50 crosses over ema100) or (ema50 crosses over ema200)
Cross2 = (Ema20 crosses under ema50) or (ema20 crosses under ema100) or (ema50 crosses under ema100) or (ema50 crosses under ema200)
rises = rise or rise1 or rise2 or rise3 or rise4 or rise5
falls = fall or fall1 or fall2 or fall3 or fall4 or fall5
CrossBull = cross1 and cross3
CrossBear = cross2 and cross4
LongEMA = (long1 or long2 or long3 or long4)
ShortEMA = (short1 or short2 or short3 or short4)
Bull = crossBull and longema
Bear = crossBea and shortema
screener [Bull or Bear] (Bull as “1”)
Yes, you need to define firstly the time frame used by the code which is contained below, for each timeframe tested. Hope it’s clear to you. Cannot post code right now.
Its still not clear, whats the syntax for the TIMEFRAME(xminutes) because with TIMEFRAME(5Minutes) i get an error message. And from what ive understood, after TIMEFRAME is introduced to code the drop down menu to select what candle time you want to screener to run at becomes useless?
Hi, is there a way around using TIMEFRAME? since it seems not to be very useful for short term trading.
hi, could you explain to me how do achieve what im trying to do please.
thanks
