ok i have a MACD signal setup, actually its the "Equis - MACD" just modified. The problem with it is the signal doesn't get triggered until the session close when the data is recalculated, this is on a 5 min chart. Here's the code: Cross(MACD(),Mov(MACD(),9,E)) What i want to do is get the exact same signals only on a 1min chart that way if my criteria is met say at 3:52:30 the signal would be triggered at 3:53 and put me in a better position. So i thought that the easiest way to do this would be to change the code to use a 45 moving avg on the 1 min chart since that seems like it would be the same as a 9 mov avg on a 5 min.. but this doesn't work. any ideas? i also tried to set up the real time signaler but then i just get tons of signals as the price moves up and down... sorry if this is a little messy, i don't know how else to explain it. Thanks!!!

You need to create Multi time frame indicators. The easiest way is to use the TMW dll in the forum or use the PowerPivots+ Add-on and use time Data create

what if i just took the code from the MACD used in that expert and multiplied the digits by 5 and then used the same expert on a 1min chart. This should produce the desired results correct? But then there's the problem of finding the code used in MetaStockFX for the MACD indicator. does anyone have this, am i way off? i'd actually rather not use 2 charts i just want the ability to enter my trades at a better starting position.
