There is a setting called SignalTimeFrame that can be set to 240 to trade the 4 hr chart. Not sure about settings for the indicators though.

I am currently unable to backtest as MT4 has deleted all of my history data for all currency pairs. I last did a backup of my data on Feb 9 and was about to do another backup. I ran a backtest on another ea and had a modeling quality of 4%. When I checked my 1 minute data it was only from March 2, 2007. Refrsh om 1 minute chart and using Home key did not download any more data. I contacted FXDD and they gave me a link to download FXDD 1 minute data. Problem is the data is only until Feb 6 so there is currently a gap of 3 weeks. I will call them again tomorrow to try to fix the problem. This is on both demo and live account.

What a hassle. Why can't they modify MT4 to leave my history files alone except for adding new data.
