Hello,

Is it possible in an expert advisor, to have 2 different timeframes conditions, for example : buy if MACD (daily) is higher than previous and MACD (hourly) is higher than previous.

Thanks for help.

Hi

The answer is yes. Some functions have parameter "timeframe". For example:

double iMA( string symbol, int TIMEFRAME, int period, int ma_shift, int ma_method, int applied_price, int shift)

MA1 = iMA(NULL,PERIOD_M30,FastMA,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_MEDIAN ,i)
MA2 = iMA(NULL,PERIOD_D1,SlowMA,0,MODE_EMA,PRICE_MEDIAN, i)

Here we have two moving averages: first from half hour chart, second from daily one. Painting them together is quite complicated, but for EA it does not really matter.

hope this helps
