Is there a way to use SAR() for a different TimeFrame? #438011 03/04/14 19:46 03/04/14 19:46

I tried the below, but TimeFrame doesn't seem to affect SAR() at all. Is there any way to simulate a wider timeframe by supplying a different input to SAR() ? Code: function run() { StartDate = 20140206; EndDate = 20140212; BarPeriod = 15; TimeFrame = 4; vars Price = series(price()); var sar = SAR(0.02,0.2); plot("SAR",sar,DOT,RED); TimeFrame = 1; }

But of course an extended SAR could be implemented for this - you can suggest it on the future forum. Or alternatively, you can write a SAR indicator yourself - you can find its algorithm on the web.
