How to set up 7 Minute, 8 Minute and 9 Minute charts on MT5 platform.
Hello,
Is it possible for me as an MT5 trader to set up 7 Minute, 8 Minute and 9 Minute charts on my MT5 platform?
If yes, how do I go about doing that?
Thank you,

And how would you prevent 7 minute, 8 minute and 9 minute charts to start at a different point (and thus repaint)? For example : when exactly would a new 7 minute (or 8 minute or 9 minute) bar start within a new hour or a new day or whatever?
Some "time frames" are not possible simply due to the nature of "time frames" and a lack of periodicity and repeatability - forget about those

Hi Mladen Rakic. Thank you for your response.
How come what you are saying is being done for 1 Minute, 2 Min, M3, M4, M5 and M6? Why is it not possible for M7, M8 and M9?
Surely if you can start a new bar at every new 1 min, 2 min, 3 min, 4 min, 5 min and 6 min, you would also be able to do exactly the same for 7min, 8min and 9min?

Thanks Alain. You can see I´m not a programmer. :-)

On second thoughts: Alain, you clarified what Mladen Rakic was saying.
However, it is possible to set up a 7 minute, 8 minute and 9 minute or any minute or hour or any time frame chart manually.
Thus, it is possible to do it on a computer. That is the question I am asking.
Is it possible for me to do it with the available tools on the MT5 platform?

It can not
You are lacking the periodicity and repeatability - regardless if you try to do that manually or automatically

I humbly beg to differ :-)
You can always do it manually. You just move the 60 forward all the time.

Actually you could, but that would be an arbitrary mess. (you need to fix some rules).
Yes, but in that case, for example, 7 minute bar would start at nnn minutes on one hour and xxx minutes on another our
Or, if it would be made to start at same time (and have all the rest of bars at same minutes), then at least one bar would not be 7 minute bar
Can not be done in any usable and error free way

No sense in what you are asking - read the previous post
