With the Explorer, you select 1 Interval, either through the Explorer dialogue box of MetaStock 13, or by Editing the Exploration and clicking Options (v11 and prior).
The MetaStock formula language runs off of the Interval selected.
There is no direct way to reference the data in multiple time frames. However, there are ways using functions like ValueWhen, Rate of Change, and DayOfWeek, etc. to take smaller interval data, (i.e. 5 minute data) and figure out the higher time frame value. Of course, it can take a large amount of smaller time frame data to combine into the higher time frame value, so there will be limitations to how far back historically you can go.

Hi yahya_a
The MSTT Multi-Frame collection of indicators can provide a solution to this type of problem. However, the nature of your exploration(s) might make it impractical to take such an approach. Factors such as the amount of daily data needed to calculate monthly indicator values (for example) can make the process even slower than batching two or three periodocity-specific simple explorations for the same result.
