Hello!

As I understand, right now indicators follow to timeframe of parent chart. Will be really helpful to mix different timeframes on same chart.

How it should look like? Generally indicators have dependencies on the X and Y axes.

In most of the cases X axis for indicators and market chart are the same and it is time. But agree with you that not all indicators can be scaled right on same chart with market data.

Fo all indicators that return a price at the end of the bar-period (all kinds of MA-based indicators, ZigZags, etc.), indicator-values could easily be drawn on charts with different timeframes.

We actually draw indicators of different timeframes in one chart ourselves.
(That's why the performance of the charting is of high priority for us, see: https://www.dukascopy.com/swiss/english/forex/jforex/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=35965)

If you consider to implement this useful feature, one way would be to add a timeframe-field in the parameter-dialog of the respective indicators (that would be "compatible" to be shown in different timeframes).
This timeframe-field could hold a dropdown with the following values:
"auto-adjust" (to selected timeframe)
+ list of all periods available (..."10 seconds", ..."1 minute", ..."4 hours", "1 day", ..."3 pips", ...). (Yes, you can show indicators calculated on rangebar-ranges in timebased charts and vice versa...)

When "auto-adjust" is selected, the behaviour is the same as you have at this moment, the indicator's timeframe gets adjusted to the selected timeframe of the chart. If a fixed value is selected (e.g. "1 Day" or "4 Hours" or ...), the indicator-values get calculated on the selected timeframe and are drawn regardless of the selected timeframe of the chart.

Best, RR.

Dear Support,

Is there a way to plot an indicator from a bigger time frame on a lower time frame chart? Please see the attached image for more details. There I have a CCI from a 15 min chart plotted on a 1 min chart. Is there a way to code that in JForex ?

Thank you very much in advance!
