Can I make MAs unique to a time frame?
I want to be abe to see the 5 DAY EMA on my hourly and 15 minute charts. (not he 5 period EMA but the 37.5 EMA on the hourly for example). If I cant set MAs by timeframe what is the practical work around to toggle different MAs quickly? Trainer or user responses appreciated.

Typically you can only adjust the mav length to the amount of bars.
For example: a 30 minute chart has 13 bars per day.
So a 5 period "daily" mav would be approx a 65 period moving average. (13*5)
Thanks

thx Diceman. Yes I understand that. But if I want different moving averages depending on the time frame, how is that best accomplished so that you make changing from one timeframe to another with the different MAs quick and easy?

Probably saving a "group" of tabs as one layout.
You can click on 1 HR, 30 min, daily (whatever you require)
with each chart showing the "correct" length mav for its timeframe.
Thanks

Yep, thats the way to do it. I was not familiar with tabs. Thank you.
