Custom indicator to switch timeframe and add indicator

Hi!

Imagine you have a EURUSD chart at the M1 timeframe and using a custom indicator "switch".

Upon a certain event "switch" will change the chart to the H4 timeframe and add an indicator, e.g. EMA20 (whatever).

Alternatively, "switch" could pop up a new window with the settings from above.


Can this be done programming mql4?

No.

You need Windows API commands. If you know how to use them in mql, the answer is "Yes".

A russian coder made a dll which can do such things like switching timeframes and loading scripts, EAs , indicators on charts , you can get a feeling for it here:

The article is written in russian but the dll-calls are english and somehow self-explaining.

I better forget about it.
Thanks for the info.

i've a question. the script .mq4 that can download in this forum, can i copy and paste in my EA to add the parametres (for ex. change stop loss script).

or i can add at the charts, like the indicators?

thankyou
