[MT5 / MT4] Indicators for switching time ranges with shortcut keys (version on 2021.11.28)


An indicator that allows you to switch MT5 timeframes with a keystroke input (there is also an MT4 version). The search might be naive, but I rarely see MT5, so I'll post it. It's an indicator that only works when you press the app's shortcut key, so there's almost no load, so feel free to try it out.

MT5 has more detailed timeframes than MT4, but it is difficult to assign them all correctly to the keyboard, so assigning timeframes in MT4 to keys 1 to 9 (both timeframes and shortcuts can be changed) can now switch between timeframes Except using the arrow keys. Since key presses are not accompanied by visual recognition, when switching time ranges, the name of the changed time range is displayed in the center of the graph for about 1.5 seconds.

Since the arrow keys are usually used for scrolling, I tried using the comma and period keys (< >) instead of the arrow keys. Can be selected by parameter.

I've seen quite a few scripts that toggle time ranges for multiple charts at the same time, so I added them.
