Hi bienve.pf,

I am not sure what do you mean. You can choose the timeframe on Symbol parameters. Do you mean to get data from another timeframe that the one specified on the chart? If yes, read the discussion here.

Best Regards,

Hi bienve.pf,

Can you share the indicator with us? If programmed properly, it should work fine.
