Hi,

I have a little indicator to identify the highest point on the last 24 hours (starting from 11pm) on a 1 hour chart, but if I want to use a 5mn chart, I need to change the [24] into [288], hence a different indicator.

Would there be a way to code differently so that a single indicator gives the right information without changing the lookback data irrespective of the timeframe I am on?

Thanks
```
if hour=23 then
a=highest[24](high)
endif
return a
```

You can use the MTF (Multi Time Frame) support:
```
Timeframe(1 hour,UpdateOnClose)
if hour=23 then
   a=highest[24](high)
endif
Timeframe(default)
return a
```
it’ll work on any TF up to 1-hour (not higher).

Thanks, but actually, I would like to use it for lower timeframes (15mn, 5mn, 2mn, 1mn)

How do I do that?

You can use it in any TF <= 1 hour.

Add it to your chart, then select 5 minutes, or 1 minute, etc…. not higher than 1 hour.
