Thanks Lodol2

Sorry that I missed those. Thank you for bringing them to my attention.

I had some problems compiling. I've never seen this error before. Any ideas?

See graphic

Thank You.

i agree with everything you said, but i don't think i made myself clear enough.

keris formula doesn't look like that in real time (without refreshing the charts!), it looks more like that yellow line; if you refresh the charts, yes, everything looks fine - but then why won't we simply use a second chart with the higher timeframe... and confirm the indicator moves only on the higher timeframe?

from the moment you plot a mtf indicator on a lower timeframe, you have another way of averaging some data on that timeframe (and not on a higher tf). it's never gonna look like the original - but it can be approximated. so the question is, how to find the best formula for the closest approximation? and i think this answers your question... right?

mladen:
Red line is the aproximation of the MA you are proposing

Magenta is the Keris way of MTF MA

Golden line are the real values of a higher time frame MA on a lower time frame

As you can see, there is hardly a singe correct value of the aproximated one over a period of time, while Keris's formula gives at least one correct value per period. Anyway, formula for the aproximation in Metatrader would be :

MAperiod=MAperiod*TimeFrame/Period()

If you try to apply this aproximation to moving average derived indicators (MACD for example), you will end up with big, and I mean BIG differences (I have seen a 7-8% difference of a 4H MACD on an 1H time frame)

A counter question : what do you think how many people did try different aproaches to multi time frame indicators?
 

Error in Code

I figured it out. This extra code was left in the file -- at the end. Just delete it, compile and voila'.

Excellent indicator BTW.

---

/*

void drawLine(double lvl,string name, color Col )

{

ObjectDelete(name);

ObjectCreate(name, OBJ_HLINE, WindowFind(name), Time[0], lvl,Time[0], lvl);

ObjectSet(name, OBJPROP_STYLE, STYLE_DOT);

ObjectSet(name, OBJPROP_COLOR, Col);

ObjectSet(name,OBJPROP_WIDTH,1);

}

---

 

...

The yellow line is the "real MTF" moving average

There is no need to "refresh" any of the indicators on the picture

As for the rest, please read that post again

Need Mtf For This Indi

Hi all,

I've been wanting to have the ability to plot indicators from different timeframes on my chart

People, let's get serious

I am serious mladen...

I am a newbie and not a programmer, may be scrat's way is not perfect, but maybe i can use it. I will try it. If it useful, i'll use it. If it's not, i will look for again another great way or other indicator.

I have ever ask Codersguru about the similar thing.

My question to him was if i use 1 EMA in 30M TF, then in 1M TF it's must be 30 EMA.

And he said it was not like that. But i was not satisfied, maybe there is another way, so i find it in here. But if it is not useful, It's all right to me... . At least i know the result is.

BTW, thanks for the latest RSIOMA mladen, i like it very much, and thanks to fxbs and Kalenzo too, for this great indicator.

Regards,

IIN

 

The trouble is this:

That idea with MA's is probably the oldest idea in technical analysis

I do agree that places like TSD are places for sharing ideas, and knowledge

But please no one should try to do it this way :

i was just wondering if any of you ever thought to make a correspondence between the same indicator on a higher and on a smaller tf at the same time....

Come on, what the hell are we trying to do here, anyway?

I hope that now I made myself clear

regards

mladen

my apologies.

Does anyone know where these MTF indis are?

I've looked all over for MTF versions of these. Does anyone know or have they seen them?

Thank you.
