Moving Average on Different Timeframe Chart

I want to draw the 1 hr, 21 period moving average on the 5min chart.

Or any combination of a higher time frame MA on a lower timeframe chart.

Why is this seemingly not possible to do easily? Am I missing where or how easy it is to do?

Anyone know of how this can be done?

Try to find an indicator call 'Second Chart'. You can install the same currency or different currency pair, and set the time frame to eg. '60' for H1 chart below your main chart. However the chart cannot display the moving average.

As my quota has been exceeded I cannot provide you with the attachment! Unless you drop an email at [email protected]

Hi, to see a 1 hr mov av on 5 min chart you need to multiply by 12 (60 min in hr divided by 5 min candle) so a 21 becomes 252 this will need to be entered into the mov avg value box on the 5 min candle chart, Hope this helps

This seems like a Ratio & Proportion problem:


60min chart = MA21
5min chart = x

60min/5min = 12

12 * 21period = 252period


The MA period on your M5 chart would need to be 252, or 12 times the size of your M5 chart.
