Hi halfasleep,
Sure you can do that. You can use the same EA at any timeframe you want.
But every EA has its manual and recommended timeframes.
I think there's no need to use Magic Number or any to make modification in the EA code. You have only to change the T/F, S/L and T/S of the EA from the input window.
The only thing you have to be sure that the code of the EA uses 0 for Timeframe parameter and not hard coded Timeframe.
EX:
iMA(NULL,0,Ema_Period,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0);
The bold 0 is the Timeframe parameter.
But if the code wrote like this:
iMA(NULL,60,Ema_Period,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0);
It will not work at any Timeframe buy H1 Timeframe
For example the EMA CROSS EA of coders' guru works fine in any timeframe (except M1 and I didn't try it in W1 or MN).
Hope everything is clear now.
