Hi Subgenius

I think you need to code it explicitly. This script works.

int start()
{
   string PeriodStr;
   switch( Period() ) {
      case 1:
         PeriodStr = "M1";
         break;
      case 5:
         PeriodStr = "M5";
         break;
      case 15:
         PeriodStr = "M15";
         break;
      case 30:
         PeriodStr = "M30";
         break;
      case 60:
         PeriodStr = "H1";
         break;
      case 240:
         PeriodStr = "H4";
         break;
      case 1440:
         PeriodStr = "D1";
         break;
      case 10080:
         PeriodStr = "W1";
         break;
      case 43200:
         PeriodStr = "MN1";
            break;
      default:
         PeriodStr = "Unknown";
         break;
   }
   Comment( "Period is ", PeriodStr );
   return(0);
}

Here's mine:

string PeriodToStr(int period)
{
   if(period == PERIOD_M1) return("1 Minute");
   else if(period == PERIOD_M5) return("5 Minutes");
   else if(period == PERIOD_M15) return("15 Minutes");
   else if(period == PERIOD_M30) return("30 Minutes");
   else if(period == PERIOD_H1) return("1 Hour");
   else if(period == PERIOD_H4) return("4 Hours");
   else if(period == PERIOD_D1) return("Daily");
   else if(period == PERIOD_W1) return("Weekly");
   else if(period == PERIOD_MN1) return("Monthly");
   else return("Unknown");
}

PeriodToStr(Period());
