Change PeriodType

[sniper]

Is possible to change PeriodType with constant ?
For example:
If I loaded a chart at 1 minute timeframe i have in
protected override void Initialize()
{
Add(PeriodType.Minute, 3);
}

but if I have a 5 mins chart i need to have :
Add(PeriodType.Minute, 15);

and if i have a 15 seconds charts i need to have:
Add(PeriodType.Seconds, 45);

The constant is 3 X loaded timeframe charts.

How can I build a script to do this?

Thanks in advance.

Hello sniper,

The following should work ok:

protected override void Initialize()
{
Add(PeriodType.Minute, BarsPeriod.Value*3);
}

Let me know if this does not accomplish what you would like.

Thanks

The question is:
How can I change BarsPeriod.Id in protected override void Initialize() ?

Hello sniper,

It is not possible to change either BarsPeriod.Id or BarsPeriod.Value. But you can use this from the primary data series when adding a secondary data series.

For example:
Add(BarsPeriod.Id, BarsPeriod.Value*3);
