Multiple Time Frames

[gdargento]

Is it possible to access multiple time frames and their studies from an advanced chart? For instance I'd like to use as on of my signals to enter a trade from the 1 min chart a signal from the MACD on a 5 min chart.

Backtesting also important here. I know I could use setGlobalValue/getGlobalValue but this would not facilitate backtesting.

Thanks...

On the issue of multiple time frames in general you may want to read this post by Garth Doverspike.
Also check this message for an example of a MACD used in multiple time frames.

Gdargento,

This functionality isn't available just yet. With the implementation of EFS 2, we are working to have the ability to use multiple time frames on one Advanced Chart. In the meantime, here is something you may want to try. In the image below, I overlaid a 5-minute chart with the MACD scaled to take up the entire window underneath a 1-minute Advanced Chart. This isn't an ideal way to do things, but it may work in the interim. Thanks.
