Chart window?

Do you mean time frame change on a pair, or a different pair?

Hello
I need some help with some code please.

I have made an indi that indicates when ema(7) crosses ema(22) on a 30 minute chart.
Now i want there to be a second cross on the 5 minute frame following the initial cross on the 30 minute frame.

so the 5 minute cross follows the first 30 minute cross.

Enclosed is the code im playing with.
Its obviously not working, can someone help me please?

Thank you in advance

The first problem I see is your indicator shift values are set to -1 which is incorrect it should be a +1 for previous bar values. This being an array counting begins at 0 going from right to left, the -1 is trying to get a value 1 bar in the future bar which does not exist yet.

You can also delete the RefreshRates() function call at the very bottom as it does nothing in an indicator, it is an Orders function.http://docs.mql4.com/windows/refreshrates

Then a look at your logic...

   for(int i = 0 ;i < limit ;i++)
  {first cross 30M
     { for(int k = 0 ;k < limit ;k++)
        {second cross 5M
          {place arrow}
        }
      }
    }

Thank you for your speedy response cyber1
OK:
i have taken out the refresh() command.
And i have now brought back the indi to its original "first cross"situation, where the iteratinos are with (...i+1).
its in the attachment.

Following your advice, i need to now create a new loop.
I tried that yeserday, so i guess i was close, but it didnt work.

So to be sure, do you mean that the setup should be a bit like this ? :

[code] for(int i = 0 ;i < limit ;i++)
{first cross 30M
{ for(int k = 0 ;k < limit ;k++)...

  for(int i = 0 ;i < limit ;i++)
  {first cross 30M
     { for(int k = i ;k < i+100 ;k++)
        {second cross 5M
          {place arrow}
        }
      }
    }

Yes, except the nested loop will not start at 0 and will not iterate through the entire array. You only want to scan back X number of bars.

Cyber1:
i have tried to add an extra loop.
One for a "up" case and one for the "down"case.

Im pretty sure im still dong something clumsy, though....

would you mind taking a look at the code once more for me please?

Oh your code is much more logical !
i was so close ....lol

But now im looking at the effect on the chart and im not sure.
The 5 minute cross should appear After the 30 min cross.

I have attached two screenshots: 30M first cross and 5M second cross.

It seems to be placing arrows at every 30M cross, and sometimes between 5M crosses...

Could you look at the screenshots please?

Can you post a screenshot with the time frame and pair visible?
What timeframe do you plan on using this on?

yes ofcourse Cyber....
in this example it is the GBP/USD.
My intention is to use the 30M for the initial cross. After that, the next 5M cross should be valid.....

Attached are two screen shots of GBP/USD. 30 min and 5 min.

As you can see in the first one (30 min) there is a cross with an arrow down at about 9:30.
Then driling down to 5 min, i would expect an arrow at the second cross around 12:30....

i hope its clear enough ...

I'm not sure what it is you're expecting to see. The way it's coded is it first looks for a cross on M30 then scans back X number of bars. If it finds a cross on M5 then it puts an arrow at the M30 cross. Sounds like you're expecting to see something else.

You may have to reverse the time frames and look for an M5 cross and then look for your M30 cross and shorten the number of bars your scanning back.

If you want to see arrows from the M5 time frame on the M30 chart in addition to the M30 crosses you would have to add two more buffers....

Hmmm, i seem to not be explaining it well...
Appologies...what i mean is that:
when the 30M cross occurs, it looks back X-bars to find the 5 min cross. But i want the 5M cross always to come after the 30M cross.

In the attachment i posted of the 5M, you do not see any arrow at the 5M cross that appeared after the 30M cross.....

So in the example of GBP/USD:
the 30M cross is at 9:30....the 5M cross at 12:30 is the one im looking for.
NOT the 7:30 cross before the 30M cross...
