Mt5 code MTF supplement

[MT5.Boy]

How do I change this code or what should I add to have the option to set MTF? (I would like to set e.g. On time plane H1, if W1/D1/H4/H1/M15/M5/M1 can be set. )

Can someone rewrite it like that, thanks in advance.

Someone? any comments?

[William Roeder]

bool showInMN = true;
bool showInW1 = true;
bool showInD1 = true;
bool showInH4 = true;
bool showInH1 = true;
bool showInM15 = true;
bool showInM5 = true;
bool showInM1 = true;

Unused variables. Implement them.

This is maybe the wrong approach?

1. Would you like to have a different timeframe than the one of the chart - if no change the tf of the chart.
2. In an EA you get the values of the indicator by the function iCustom() which you can call with the tf you need - look it up.

I am sorry, I am a beginner and can not progress further with this.

I would like to write an indicator in MQL5 that, based on one of the timeframes I specify in the input data, calculates the closing value of each candle and marks it with a black arrow symbol 159 wherever the closing value occurs. Can someone write the complete working code for this!
