Custom time period

[akushyn]

Hello guys,

I have implemented the custom Button for the toolStrip and want to load chart of H4 time frame because by default we dont have such time period in NT.
Could someone, please, advice what method or class to use to call that functionality.

To simplify the scope, I would like to implement smth like in attached screen below.

1) press Ctrl + F
2) type Value property = 240 (H4 timeframe)
3) press OK.

The H4 time period is very usefull for me. It helps to understand the middle trends and what expect on the current trading session. And where can I expect good impulse for the short term trends.

And, you know, its borring all the time call DataSeries and type Value = 240
Everything is ready , just need the method/class which responds of this funcionality.

Will appreciate any advice/help!!!

You should just be able to type "240" (without quotes), and then hit enter, while viewing a chart, and you should end up on a 240 minute timeframe. Or you could type "4h" followed by enter.

Hello, Radical

Thank you for the reply. I know this method, but I need the solution to do it programmatically.
Any advice?
