Using another chart period in Indicator

phanz · 2023-04-02T17:14:27+00:00

PRT v12 allows user to plot 2 of the same indicator but using another period. Unfortunately, V11 does not come with that, at least not in the setting. I am wondering if anyone has written a code to mimic that functionality in V11. The indicators that I am interested in are the common ones like Stochastic, SMA, EMA, MACD and ATR. Thank you.

You can fudge it by using 2 different periods, eg MA20 on 5 min TF is same as MA100 on 1 min TF. Hope that makes sense?

If I understand your question correctly, you can use a simple code (in your indicator) with which you record the different time frames…

(I think up to seven different time frames?)
```
TimeFrame(5 minutes)
S5=Average[14,0](Close)

TimeFrame(15 minutes)
S15=Average[14,0](Close)

Return S5 as "S5" Coloured(255,0,0), S15 as "S15" Coloured(0,255,0)
```
