Multitimeframe strategy for MACD

New comment
 

Hi, I'd like to test an own expert advisor using several timeframes. Parameters would be:

Shorter_Period = (ex.M15), Longer_Period = (ex.H4). So the strategy will run through all of the periods between.

So then, we're going to consider this is for example applied to MACD indicator:

double Main=iMACD(Symbol(),MACD_Timeframe,FastEMA_Period,SlowEMA_Period,Signal_Period,PRICE_CLOSE,MODE_MAIN,OperationMode);
double Signal=iMACD(Symbol(),MACD_Timeframe,FastEMA_Period,SlowEMA_Period,Signal_Period,PRICE_CLOSE,MODE_SIGNAL,OperationMode);

So then how's that I have to set the function to match Main and Signal timeframe the same in such case as they're defined as variable?

 

Just do them separately, so:

double MACDMain15m = iMACD(....

double MACDSignal15m = iMACD(....

double MACDMain1Hr = iMACD(....

double MACDSignal1Hr = iMACD(....

etc

Yes, that would be probably the easier way.
