  Hello forum users! I need a screener to keep track of 1 minute EMAs (which ive already coded) but I would like it to also keep track of 5 minute EMAs at the same time. How can I get about doing this?

  Thanks

  Jem

  You can use multi time frame in ProScreener , you can find an example here in the documentation : www.prorealcode.com/documentation/timeframe

  Hello, After experimenting withe the code it seems that you can’t go any lower than 1 hour? I try using TIMEFRAME(5Minutes) and i get an error message suggesting that i replace ‘minutes’ with ‘hour’.

  And also, I want to track 1 minute data and 5 minute data, the screener is set to 1 minut so do I need to code in a TIMEFRAME(1minute) aswell as TIMEFRAME(5Minutes)?

  heres the code, i want to be able to track the same ema crosses for 1 minute and 5 minute

  Timeframe(5minutes)
  Cross3 = (Ema20 crosses over ema50) or (ema20 crosses over ema100) or (ema50 crosses over ema100) or (ema50 crosses over ema200)

  Cross4 = (Ema20 crosses under ema50) or (ema20 crosses under ema100) or (ema50 crosses under ema100) or (ema50 crosses under ema200)
  Long1 = EMA20 < Ema200
  Long2 = EMA20 < Ema100
  Long3 = EMA50 < Ema200
  Long4 = EMA50 < Ema100

  Short1 = EMA20 > Ema200
  Short2 = EMA20 > Ema100
  Short3 = Ema50 > Ema200
  Short4 = Ema50 > Ema100

  Cross1 = (Ema20 crosses over ema50) or (ema20 crosses over ema100) or (ema50 crosses over ema100) or (ema50 crosses over ema200)

  Cross2 = (Ema20 crosses under ema50) or (ema20 crosses under ema100) or (ema50 crosses under ema100) or (ema50 crosses under ema200)

  rises = rise or rise1 or rise2 or rise3 or rise4 or rise5
  falls = fall or fall1 or fall2 or fall3 or fall4 or fall5

  CrossBull = cross1 and cross3
  CrossBear = cross2 and cross4

  LongEMA = (long1 or long2 or long3 or long4)
  ShortEMA = (short1 or short2 or short3 or short4)

  Bull = crossBull and longema
  Bear = crossBea and shortema

  screener [Bull or Bear] (Bull as “1”)

  Yes, you need to define firstly the time frame used by the code which is contained below, for each timeframe tested. Hope it’s clear to you. Cannot post code right now.

  Its still not clear, whats the syntax for the TIMEFRAME(xminutes) because with TIMEFRAME(5Minutes) i get an error message. And from what ive understood, after  TIMEFRAME is introduced to code the drop down menu to select what candle time you want to screener to run at becomes useless?

  Hi, is there a way around using TIMEFRAME? since it seems not to be very useful for short term trading.

  TIMEFRAME(DEFAULT) // code related to timeframe specified in screener (selection of period) TIMEFRAME(5 minutes) // code related to 5 minute timeframe TIMEFRAME(1 minute) // code related to 1 minute timeframe

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

  TIMEFRAME(DEFAULT) // code related to timeframe specified in screener (selection of period)   TIMEFRAME(5 minutes) // code related to 5 minute timeframe   TIMEFRAME(1 minute) // code related to 1 minute timeframe
