Is it possible to build a condition/rule using rules from different charts?

I would like to build a rule which uses conditions from different charts with different time frames in backtest.

You need to add the Indicators of interest to the same Chart multiple times (one for each Time Frame of interest) and manually adjust the Time Frames in the Block Diagrams. The following topics have examples:

rules based on different time frames
Seeking Price Rule Based Upon Price Bars With 2 Different Time Frames
Multiple Time Frame

You can then create the Rules individually and then Drag and Drop them onto each other to create a Combo Rule.

Rule Basics

Another option if you are just interested in Scanning would be to create two Charts (each with its own Time Frame) and a Stochastic to each Chart. You could then create Drag and Drop Rules and Drag them to the Watchlist and select Scan. You would then have two Watchlist Columns that would both have to return True for the combination as a whole to be True.
