In the image below:
- The top panel is the main instrument on 60 minutes.
- The second panel is a manually added data series, different instrument on a 15 minute time frame (the bars are displayed correctly).
- The third panel is a custom indicator with the same instrument as panel 2 on a 15 time frame. The values in panel 3 should be the same as the second panel, and if all of the panels are on the same timeframe panels 2 and 3 look exactly alike. However when the indicator in panel 3 is on a different time than the primary panel, it does not render its bars correctly.
- Is there a solution to render the bars in panel 3 to make the look like panel 2 when its on a smaller time frame than the primary instrument?
- If not, is there a way to use the data in panel 2 (the manually added data series) in the strategy? I'm really looking to trigger the entry based on the close of a bar in the smaller time frame.
- If both of those options are not possible, is there a way to have a completely separate chart send a signal a the strategy? In that scenario I'd setup the other chart with the custom indicator and when the conditions are met have it send a signal to the chart that will place the trade if its other condition are also met.
Thank you for any suggestions.
