Does anyone know how to place data from a study/indicator that is on one timeframe into a strategy using a different timeframe in TradeStation? Say, for example, I wanted to use a moving average and an RSI in combination to produce entry and exit signals for a custom strategy. If I'm trading on a 5-mintue chart and I want a 5-min moving average and a 5-minute RSI, piece of cake. But, what if I want to trade a 5-minute chart with a 5-minute moving average and an hourly RSI?

ABTCG,
I yeah I think I was misunderstanding that then. The title of the field is misleading. When you say "max bars back" you are referring to Studies->Edit Strategies->Properties for All-> General -> Backtesing Resolution -> "maximum number of bars study will reference." Correct?
Best,
Alex
