  HI Nicolas,  I am looking for a way to display an hourly  moving average on a 5min chart.  What is the best way to do that?

  Hi – For any moving average on a 5min chart multiply by 12 for an hourly equivalent or 48 for a 4 hour.

  For example, a 20 period simple moving average on the 1 hour equals 240 period on the 5 min (as near as dammit). For the larger intervals you might have to load more bars (units).

  Hope that helps
