Jim, Don't know if you searched the archives or not.
Here is something I posted few days ago. You can use this as a base and build on it. ================= TimeFrameSet( 1/4*inHourly ); // switch now to 1/4 hour (15mins) ADXIncreasingIn15Minute=ADX()>Ref(ADX(),-1); TimeFrameRestore(); ///Now in 5mins ADXIncreasingIn15Minute_expandedto5mins=TimeFrameExpand(ADXIncreasingIn15Minute,,1/4*inHourly,expandFirst); Now use ADXIncreasingIn15Minute_expandedto5mins to do the coloring logic etc. Cheers,Padhu ============================================================ ----- Original Message ----- From: jrswindle2001 To: [email protected] Sent: Monday, October 15, 2007 8:42 PM Subject: [amibroker] TimeFrameExpand ADX Hope someone has had this problem before. I've never really used the compression of timeframes. I can get compression to work fine for SAR's but for the ADX (NDI/PDI) I can't seem to get it to work. I am using a 5 minute timeframe (with a 1 minute data feed), and the 15 minute only shows the correct signal every 3 bars (and it should show on every bar I would think). For example, it should show the red color for, say 15 bars. Instead it shows red, yellow, yellow, red, yellow, yellow, red... Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Jim // 15 minute TimeFrameSet( in15Minute ); nADX2 = ADX(range) ; nPDI2 = PDI(range); nMDI2 = MDI(range) ; TimeFrameRestore(); // restore time frame to original nADX2 = TimeFrameExpand(nADX2, in15Minute) ; nPDI2 = TimeFrameExpand(nPDI2, in15Minute) ; nMDI2 = TimeFrameExpand(nMDI2, in15Minute) ; // if the ADX is going up and the PDI is over NDI, then make it green, // If NDI over PDI then make it red, else make it yellow. ColorADX2 = IIf(nADX2 > Ref(nADX2,-1), IIf(nPDI2 > nMDI2,colorGreen,colorRed), colorYellow) ; Plot(nADX2, "ADX2", ColorADX2, styleDots+styleNoLine );
