How do I use different time frames in a strategy?

If you want to use a higher timeframe in your strategy, you have to use the "resize()" function.

This can be done in 2 ways:

• Resize a close and use this to calculate the ema
  This will update every candle
  

  • close1H = resize(close, "1H")
    ema1H = ema(close1H,21)

• Resize an entire function
  This will only update every resized candle
  

  • res = resInput("MTF", "1D", ["4H", "6H", "12H", "1D", "1W"]) 
    def std = resize(res) 
    { stdev(close, ma_len) 
    }
