Using Multiple Time Frame within Trading Systems

Time frame object - Multiple Time Frame Analysis across multiple trading systems and trading symbols

Every trading system is run at a specified time frame but sometimes you'll want to confirm your signals with the signals generated from a different time frame. For example, a trading system trading at the EOD (end of day) might want to use the weekly time frame to confirm long term trends.

The trading system example weekly & daily shows this in action, the signals are generated at the daily time frame but are only acted upon if the weekly time frame confirms the signals.

Seer includes the more common time frames such as Month, Week, Day, Hour, 30 minutes, 20 Minutes, 15 Minutes, 10 minutes, 5 Minutes and 1 minute.

You can also define and use your own time frames based upon time or tick count. This will allow you to create time frames such as a 7 minute bar, 89 tick bar, a 45 second bar. You will also be able to us all these time frames together should you choose to do so!
