Hello,

You can add a new indicator to a chart via Insert -> Add Indicator menu, then activate the "1 minute" and "5 minutes" timeframes in the "Timeframes" tab and the indicator will be added to both these timeframes.
Then you can switch the timeframe of the chart and the indicator will be there too.

Note, that our software will show 1minute indicator on 1M timeframe and 5minute on 5M timeframe.

This isn't actually what I want by default. Like, MT4, I need to show a 5min indicator on a 1min chart. From what I've read, this isn't possible by default so are in the middle of creating a MTF indicator from scratch. It doesn't appeear too difficult although I admit I have had problems along the way.

Hello,

Sorry, but our software doesn't have any built-in MTF indicators so the only way is to search for them on our forum or create them by yourself.
