Using a Configurable Higher Timeframe with an HLCrossSigForWPR Indicator

Article MQL5 code base

Summary

This brief indicator note describes a version of HLCrossSigForWPR that lets the user choose the timeframe used by the indicator. The supplied default is a four-hour period, while the input can be changed to another supported timeframe. This allows the indicator to be used with a timeframe distinct from the chart’s own period.

The note says the underlying HLCrossSigForWPR compiled indicator must be present in the platform’s indicator folder for this version to run. It does not explain how the signal is calculated, what the high-low crossing represents, or how to interpret or trade its outputs. No performance results, market examples, or risk guidance are provided, so the material is limited to the timeframe option and installation dependency rather than a full trading method.

Key ideas

  • The indicator allows selection of a timeframe separate from the chart period.
  • Its stated default timeframe is four hours.
  • The underlying HLCrossSigForWPR indicator must be installed for it to operate.
  • The note does not describe signal calculations, trading rules, or performance evidence.
