Max VolumeVery simple, not very useful indicator.
This is just to show someone that yes you can use a lower timeframe in your script calculations
Example
How To Set Backtest Date RangeExample how to select and set date range window to be backtested. Normally when you change chart period it changes the number of days being backtested which means as you increas the chart period (for example from 5min to 15min) you also increase the number of days traded, so you can not compare apples to apples for which period would yield best returns for your strategy. Now you can. Incorporate this code replacing buy and sell with your strategy, then simply input the From and To dates in Format -> Inputs, and then change the chart period to view updated results.
NOTE: There is a limit in backtesting to 2000 orders, so please be aware of this when setting your date ranges. If you set your range too high, you may be exceeding this limit on some periods and not on others, so this would yield incorrect comparison of returns per period. If you see in your backtesting results that you are nearing this limit for one of your periods you are testing, then reduce the date range to a smaller number of days.
Enjoy!

Strategy Code Example 2 - Time Limiting*** THIS IS JUST AN EXAMPLE OF STRATEGY TIME LIMITING CODE IMPLEMENTATION ***
This is a follow up to my example for risk management implementation here:
Code remains mostly unchanged, but now includes a time limiting implementation.
Relevant code blocks for the time factor are preceded with a comment stating:

For my own future reference, and for anyone else who needs it.
Pine script strategy code can be confusing and awkward, so I finally sat down and had a little think about it and put something together that actually works (i think...)
Code is commented where I felt might be necessary (pretty much everything..) and covers:
Take Profit
Stop Loss
Trailing Stop
Trailing Stop Offset
...and details how to handle the input values for these in a way that allows them to be disabled if set to 0, without breaking the strategy.exit functionality or requiring a silly amount of statement nesting.
Also shows how to use functions (or variables/series) to execute trade entries and exits.
Cheers!
Binary Option Arrows (example) [TheMightyChicken]An example of binary option arrows for candlestick patterns bearish and bullish harami. With results as colored background and an option to choose your expiration (one candle by default). It's just an example for those who has their own strategy and wants to make nice arrows in their chart. All you need to do is rewrite piece of script in lines 9:13 - feel free to ask me for any help, but I believe it's all clear.
Disclaimer: It's just an example how to script arrows for binary option and I am not responsible for any loss of money by using this particular strategy.
I wish happy and successful trading! ;)
