How to detect the time interval of a chart

[FXJons]

Is it possible to detect the time frame of the chart within the efs code?

I want to be able to do different things depending on the time frame.

i.e.
IF TimeInterval = "5 Min" THEN Do "A"
IF TimeInterval = "Daily" THEN Do "B"

Hi FXJons,

Yes, but it depends on what you want.
there is: isDWM(), is Daily(), isWeekly(), isMonthly(), IsIntraDay(), isTick(), or as Alex indicated in one of her posts in the forum you can do the following:

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

And getInterval() will give you time interval in minutes. You can also adapt Alex's code for seconds by using "S" in the above code. Hope this helps.
Regards,
Jane
