I am relatively new to SC, coming from Tradestation (and other) platforms, so I'm still learning my way around. I could not find a solution for this requirement we have. We need to be able to show candlestick charts for two different timeframes within the same chart, for example: Region 1: candlestick chart > intraday Region 2: candlestick chart > daily Another example: Region 1: candlestick chart > daily Region 2: candlestick chart > weekly I tried a number of the studies (Daily OHLC - Single Point, Daily OHLC, Weekly OHLC), with no luck. Is something like this available? I am using version 1510. Any help is appreciated. |

Yep that was it. It took some fiddling around to figure it out, so I'll include this for the next soul who comes along: 1) Create a chart for each symbol and timeframe you want (e.g. GE Daily, GE 30 Min) 2) Add the Study/Price Overlay Study to the chart with the shorter timeframe (e.g. GE 30 Min) 3) In the study settings, set the following Input Name: Study to Overlay 4) Select the chart with the longer timeframe (e.g. GE Daily) and set the Chart Region as desired 5) Click Apply and OK The longer timeframe chart will now appear on the chart. Thanks a bunch for the quick response! |
