Multi time frames

[IAMMYSELF]

I want to develop an indicator that show me Volumes statistics with different time frames in the same indicator.
Should I use the IntervalListener and ovveride getInterval() for every different time frames? Or is there another way?

Thank you...

Hi IAMMYSELF!
You need to find the greatest common diviser and build bigger intervals from smaller ones.
Assume you need intervals of 50, 75 and 500 millis in your module.
50   == 2 * 5 * 5
75   == 3 * 5 * 5
500 == 2 * 2 * 5 * 5 * 5
So 5*5 = 25 is the greatest common diviser in this case.

Code: Select all

     int greatestCommonIntervalMillis = 25;

    @Override
    public long getInterval() {
        return TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS.toNanos(greatestCommonIntervalMillis );
    }

Now, you need a counter for every interval. Example for 75 millis:

Code: Select all

    @Override
    public void onInterval() {
       seventyFiveMillisCount += greatestCommonIntervalMillis;

        if (seventyFiveMillisCount == 75) {
            // do whatever you need
            seventyFiveMillisCount = 0; // reset the counter
        }
    }
