Multiple TimeFrames.

New comment
 
Hello, is it possible to access OHLC values of multiple timeframes in my code. For example I want to access the former 30 min close, while analyzing the current 5 min candle, something like that.

something like this:

datetime time=iTime(_Symbol,PERIOD_CURRENT,index); // access datetime value of index in current chart
int H4_index = iBarShift(_Symbol,PERIOD_H4,time,false);         // get equivalent index in H4 time frame
return iClose(_Symbol,PERIOD_H4, H4_index );                        // get Close price related to H4

Remember, you have to deal with 4066 / synchronization issue.

On MT4: Unless the current chart is that specific symbol(s)/TF(s) referenced, you must handle 4066/4073 errors before accessing candle/indicator values.

On MT5: Unless the current chart is that specific pair/TF, you must synchronize the terminal Data from the Server before accessing candle/indicator values.
