Strategy: Entering on one time frame and exiting on another

[rcsingleton]

Hello.

I want to create a strategy that runs on a 5-minute chart. The ENTER signals will be created on the 5-min chart. But I want to create EXIT signals that are triggered by a 1-min chart.

Can I add the following 1-min bar as a secondary bar object?

// Add a 1 minute Bars object to the strategy
Add(PeriodType.Minute, 1);

In other words, can the secondary object in a dual time frame indicator/strategy be a smaller time frame than the primary object?

Thanks.

Hi rcsingleton,

Yes, a secondary series can be any increment larger or smaller than the primary series.

Are you finding that you are running into an issue that I may assist with?

Not yet. I'm working on the strategy now. Will let you know if I see unexpected results. Thanks.
