Yes, but you'll need a custom indicator.

Set timeframe to 1440 and adjust the period and method.

Or, Just do the math. If you have a 10ma on daily, multiply by 24 (240) to get the equivalent on H1.

just multiply the MA by 24. As example, you want the 8 MA of daily chart on the hourly .

8 * 24 = 192 Insert 192 MA on the hourly

You copy the files into MQL4/Indicators
Refresh/restart your MT4
Throw that indicator on your chart and adjust the settings
It will then show you the daily MA on any timeframe that's < daily

Well actually what i'd like is eg. 20SMA of all other time frames to show in a single chart be it in 1min,5min,15min,H1 etc...
So maybe when i am in the 1min chart, i can know that the price is approaching the 15min 20SMA or
when i am in the 15min chart, i can know that the price is approaching the Daily 20SMA

Had this idea, but seems tougher to make than it sounds lol

Correct, except at the end of the day. At that time H1 and D1 values will be almost the same. Whilst during the day, the H1 is dragging the MA to interday values.

You're welcome. Anytime you transfer ma's to diff Time Frame, they will almost never be exactly the same due to individual price action on each TF.
