MTF link to default timeframe

roos · Mon, 05 Nov 2018 06:53:35 +0000

Hi PRC, apologies if this has already been covered. I am looking to run a multiple timeframe scanner but link the periods. For example I would like the scanner to run on the default period and another condition within the code to run on the one lower period as defined by a list – Example interval list might be Monthly, Weekly, Daily, 4hr, 1hr, 15min, 5min). So I might look for a default time frame 4hr and secondary timeframe the 1hr, namely one lower from my list. Is this possible pls? Thank you

This is not possible because TIMEFRAME instruction doesn’t admit any variable as the name of the desired timeframe. Sorry..
