Using ATRratio on a Selected Higher Timeframe

Article MQL5 code base
Read the original

Summary

This brief indicator note describes ATRratio_HTF, a version of the ATRratio indicator that lets the user choose the chart period through an input parameter. The example period shown is four hours, illustrating that the indicator can be configured to use a timeframe distinct from the chart currently displayed.

The note also states that the higher timeframe indicator depends on a separate ATRratio indicator file being present in the platform's indicator directory. It does not explain the ATRratio calculation, define how to interpret its values, or describe any trading rules. No performance evidence or market examples are provided, so the material is limited to the timeframe option and installation dependency.

Key ideas

  • ATRratio_HTF provides a selectable timeframe input for the indicator.
  • The example uses a four-hour period.
  • The higher timeframe variant depends on the separate ATRratio indicator file.
  • The note provides no calculation details, interpretation guidance, or performance evidence.
