    How do I get the timeframe of my chart? I want to use this info to creae higher timeframe objects?

    For exmple if current tieframe is 5 minute,  I will set the highr timeframe to 1 hour, if 1 hour, set it to 1 day, etc

    Is there a way to define an external variable for user to choose the timeframe?

    The GetTimeFrame instruction returns the current timeframe in seconds…


    It is not possible to use variables or if-then statements in combination with TimeFrame…

    Here an example:

    if gettimeframe<3600 then
if openhour<>openhour[1] then
drawvline(barindex)
endif
else
drawtext("your TF should be less than 1hr",0,-400)anchor(top,xshift,yshift)
endif

return
