Hello to everybody!
I have two questions that I would like to clarify; maybe they have already been asked, but I cannot find them.

In a multi timeframe scenario, something like that

if ((not onmarket) and (onmarket<strong>[1]</strong>) then
// do something if the strategy has just exited from the market
endif

if ((not onmarket) and (onmarket<strong>[1]</strong>) then

// do something if the strategy has just exited from the market

endif

[1] what does it refer to? to the default TF?

And in something like

timeframe (5 minutes, updateonclose)
MA20 = average [20]
bulltrend = summation [3] (MA20> MA20 [1]) = 3

// "default" timeframe (the timeframe you will launch the strategy on)
timeframe (default)
...

if (MA20 <MA20<strong>[1]</strong>) then
// do something if MA20 is decreasing
endif

timeframe (5 minutes, updateonclose)

MA20 = average [20]

bulltrend = summation [3] (MA20> MA20 [1]) = 3

// "default" timeframe (the timeframe you will launch the strategy on)

timeframe (default)

...

if (MA20 <MA20<strong>[1]</strong>) then

// do something if MA20 is decreasing

endif

[1] is referred to the value of MA20 in the TF bar 5 minutes before?

Thanks,
Lorenzo
