Please could you say me what is necessary to get the EMA below as a MTF-EMA.

Thanks in advance

    [Indicator(IsOverlay = true)]
    public class DoubleEMA : Indicator

        public IndicatorDataSeries EMA1 { get; set; }
        [Output("EMA2", Color=Colors.Red)]
        public IndicatorDataSeries EMA2 { get; set; }

        public int Period1 { get; set; }

            ema2 = Indicators.ExponentialMovingAverage(MarketSeries.Close,Period2);
        }

        {
            EMA1[index]=ema1.Result[index];
            EMA2[index]=ema2.Result[index];
        }
    }

Actually

You can use multi-timeframe indicator over your original chart by just changing the parameters of the second indicator.

For example:

EURUSD 1 HOUR with 40 PERIOD EMA = EURUSD 4 HOUR with 10 PERIOD EMA

EURUSD 1 MINUTE with 20 PERIOD EMA = EURUSD 5 MINUTES 4 PERIOD EMA

hope that helped.that's the best solution for me, for now

Hi,

If by MTF you mean multi time-frame EMA then i can tell you that this is something that we are currently working on.

Therefore, ability to write a multi-timeframe indicator will soon be possible.

if I want to create a program that works with timeframe 5 minutes and uses indicators such as moving average 1 day (pivot ect) ON THE SAME SYMBOL

can I do it?

Hello,

At the time being no you cannot. You will be able to use a method to calculate a different timeframe indicator in the future.
