drawing with multi-timeframe strategy

[cunparis]

I have a multi-timeframe strategy, let's say 5m is my primary and 60m is my secondary. If my strategy wants to draw a dot on the current bar for the 60m timeframe, is the dot going to appear in the right place? I put in a print to print the current bar and the current bar index is totally different for each timeframe, which is what one would expect. But what I'm not sure is if I draw using CurrentBar if the line will be correct on the 5m chart?

Then I have the same question for lines. I draw a line using the High. In my chart I have lines floating way above the price. Which leads me to believe that each timeframe has its own scale for time and if I draw a line between two highs on 60m it won't look right on the 5m chart?

Is this correct?

cunparis,

In a multi-time frame strategy what you see on the chart is the primary instrument. If you try to draw from the 60minute time frame it will show up somewhere on the 5min chart. You will have to be mindful as to exactly which bar you want to draw it at though.

Behavior is hard to describe. Try it out and you will see what I mean.
