Has anyone got an indicator that show for example the 200 SMA of the 15 minute time frame on the 1H?

Lots of MTF MAs plotting from higher time frame but they dont work if you try to plot from lower timeframe.

Am I missing something?


Edit:

I made one

You can't display a lower TF on a higher TF.

Example a H1 candle is 4 x M15 candles ... so you can't display the 4 M15 values on a single H1 candle.

I understand but there might be some kind of approximation indicator. So for example plotting a line on the very right to show where the LTF level would be.

Let's take your moving average :

1/ 08:00 value = 1.2010
2/ 08:15 value = 1.2015
3/ 08:30 value = 1.2000
4/ 08:45 value = 1.1995

Which info from the above would you display on the 08:00 H1 candle ?

doesnt have to be on the 1H candle. It can be on the right hand side of the chart. Like a small marker (short horizontal line) and in your case it would be the latest 8.45 value.

simply use the 50 h1 instead of 200 m15 (DIVIDE FOR 4)
