[User Discussion] - This possible? Weekly average from historic daily data. Or 5m average from all trades.

I know this might be a little computationally intensive, but is it possible to get the data for the average of all trades during a time period, or the average of all data for a time period?

For example, displaying the mid point of a 5m bar based upon the average of all trades during that bar.

Or, displaying the average of a weekly bar based upon the average of all daily OHLC data.

I know how to do it manually by say taking a 1m chart and feeding the data over to a 5m chart, but it's kind of a "hacky" workaround...

Just throwing this out...

The Auto Retracement/Projection study.

Set the time period settings etc.
Create a .5 level. Make all other levels (not the .5 level) and drawings hidden.
ez pz.

You could also use a MA study.
Choose OHLC Avg as input data with a period of 1.

Slightly diff result than Auto Retrace/Project, but again ez pz.


All depends on the precision wanted/needed.

Good trading.
