Seconds timeframes charts on mt4

 

Hi,

is it possible to get seconds timeframe charts on mt4? Like 15 seconds timeframe, 30 seconds timeframe and so on...?

It could be done in the new metatrader 4 (using the timer capability) but with a lot of problems. First problem would be how to align the execution with the real clock execution (for example it could lag 1/2 a second behind the real clock). Also, it would need to be an offline chart (with all the things that go with offline charts).

 

What would it be used for?

Hi, i don't use it anymore. But as far as i remember you have to put it on a 1 min chart...there should be some pdf with instructions when you install the package. It is safe, don't worry.

I guess that it could be done but better if you wait for a programmer opinion
