IsInterval()

[wildfiction]

I'm trying to test if a chart is a Volume, Time, or Tick based chart. I've found the IsInterval() function. Is this the right function to use to determine the type of chart? The example shows differentiating between different intervals on a Time based chart.

var sInterval = getInterval();
if (sInterval == "D" ) {
debugPrint( "This is a Daily chart.\n");
} else if (sInterval == "1") {
debugPrint("This is a one-minute chart\n");
}

Here is one way you could identify the various tick based intervals
For daily, weekly, etc you can also just use isDaily(), isWeekly(), etc
Hope this helps

if(isDaily()){
    //do this
}else if(isRawTick()){
    var myInterval = getInterval()
    var myIndex = myInterval.length;
    if(myInterval.charAt(myIndex-1)=="T") {
        //do this
    }else if (myInterval.charAt(myIndex-1)=="V") {
        //do this
    }//etc 
}

Forgot to add that for any time based interval (ie 1, 5, 13, etc minutes) you can use isIntraday()
