Multi Timeframe - Call Functions with Data2

January 27th, 2018, 06:22 PM

Hi,

I am about to code a strategy which operates in the Daily and the 4h timeframe.

- Data1 is the 4h Timeframe (This is chosen as the main Datastream (data1) for the Strategy)
- Data2 is the Daily Timeframe

If I now call the function C_Doji( percentage ) it is applied to the 4h timeframe by default. I'd like it to be applied to the Daily Timeframe instead. Is that possible ?

For Moving Averages i know it is, because one could simply use Average( close of data2, length ), does this somehow also work if there is no param given as in my scenario ?

Thanks a lot

x6taifun,

yes, this possible. When working with multiple data streams you need to tie variables to the specific data streams
and also make sure to call the function on the desired data stream.
You can find a good example for the ADX here: https://community.tradestation.com/discussions/Topic_Archive.aspx?Topic_ID=28896
