issue with selecting a timeframe in an indicator..

New comment
 

Here is a small piece of code in an Indicator i am working on. I have become stuck with an issue. The following code relates to bars on current timeframe. I need (i) to be selective of the D1 timeframe only, reguardless of with timeframe is opened on the chart. Can anyone fix the issue for me. Thanks..

for(int i = MathMax(Bars-1-IndicatorCounted(),1);
i>=1; i--)
{
double ema = EMA(i);

 

for loop comes with 3 parameters like this

for (int i = x; i >= x; i++ )

Yea i think i have that as it is? how do i make it selective of (i) using D1 timeframe only, with the code i have posted

can you fix the code?

 

what do u trying to accomplish with the MathMax() function ?

c more about MathMax() & IndicatorCounted()

 

here is the rest of the code.. Close (i) each is getting the value from current timeframe. I want it to read the values of close (i) on the daily timeframe all the time....

if(Close[i] >= ema && ema2 >= ema )
{
SetEmaColor(1,i); // BLUE
}

Your indicator needs to update every bar. And do the loop properly.

//---- check for possible errors
if(counted_bars<0) return(-1);
//---- last counted bar will be recounted
if(counted_bars>0) counted_bars--;
limit=Bars-counted_bars;
//---- main loop
for(int shift= limit-1; shift >=0; shift--){
  int D1_bar = iBarShift(NULL, PERIOD_D1, Time[shift]);
  double EMA_D1=iMA(0, PERIOD_D1,0, MODE_EMA,PRICE_MEDIAN,D1_bar);

Is this correct WhRoeder. Defining what counted bars is and Int limit...??

int counted_bars = (Bars-1-IndicatorCounted(),1);
int limit;

 

no

what is this (the red) int counted_bars = (Bars-1-IndicatorCounted(),1);
