Hi
i want to run my EA on a custom timeframe chart of 8 hours, by using it in combination with the period_convertor_opt indicator.
I have attached the period_convertor_opt indicator to my 1 hour chart, and want to run my EA on 8 hour charts.
I have set the period_convertor_opt indicator multiplier to 8.
I have opened my H8 offline chart.
The trouble is, i now do not have the option within the tester window of setting the period to H8. I am presented with the default M1, M5, M15, H1, H4, & DAILY timeframe periods.
Is it possible to run an EA/backtest/optimise an EA on a custom timeframe?
If so, how?
Many thanks.
