Hi HOMERUN, 

Thanks for posting in our forum. This method can only be used in indicators. When cBots are running changing symbol and/or timeframe is not allowed.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis

Hi Pana

Does this mean the following scenario on cBots will not work?

Open Position on MA crossover on H1 timeframe, followed by Close Position on opposite MA crossover on 5m timeframe.

Danke,

Hi CharlieBrown,

This is about the ability of the user to change the timeframe on the chart. The cBot can retrieve information from any timeframe you want and use it accordingly.

Best Regards,
