No. of bars in a different timeframe

No. of bars in a different timeframe

Lets say I am viewing the Chart in a monthly timeframe.

The Count() function returns the no. of bars in a monthly timeframe.

Now I would like to find out how many bars are there in a weekly timeframe.

I am trying this code and it returns the same results as monthly timeframe. What is wrong?

b = TimeframeApply(7,Count());
b = TimeframeDecompress(b);
output(b);

Best Answer

When referring a lower time frame, the data that is returned by "TimeframeApply" is already synchronized with the higher time frame.

You can get the number of bars using "Create Functions" editor:

result = cFunctions.GetTimeframeRawData(cFunctions.Symbol, 7, "close").Length;
