Hi!
My strategy logic allow to combine many timeframes decisions and trailing positions.
But still dont know how to plot bigger timeframe on short scale as big timeframe bars.
What do i mean.
If i want my strategy become sensitive to short period trailing positions i have to choose shorter timeframe on wich can compute and synhronyze all indicators computed on bigger timeframe. I even would prefere to use tick or 1-10 seconds timeframe to manage intraday positions.
But if i want to plot bars of bigger timeframe now i plot them on short bars scale as short scale bars. It is not comfortable.
So at the present moment i have 2 ways:?
1. Bigger timeframe plotted bars and bigger timeframe executed strategy.
2. Bigger timeframe plotted on shorter timeframe bars as short scale
and short timeframe executed strategy.

But is there way to plot bars as on big timeframe? but keep strategy running on shorter timeframe?

I suppose answer will be - Nope. But hope is alive.

Like shown in the WealthScript Programming Guide, Multi-Time Frame Analysis > Intraday/Daily > "How to: Overlay Daily Candlesticks on an Intraday Chart"?

And even short period may be kept as lines to see what s going on.
