how to get the time frame value

Postby kernel » 08 Mar 2015

hi,

I use barinterval to get the time frame value. However, barinterval can only be applied to intraday charts, not daily chart. When applied to a daily chart, it returns 1, the same as applied to a 1m chart. How can I tell a daily chart from a 1m chart then? any other functions to get the time frame value it is applied to? thanks.

BarType_ex returns a number indicating the resolution of the chart (4 for daily charts and 2 for minute charts, for example).
