Hello,

This is Ok, in Forex Tester the indicators are attached to the timeframes but not to the whole chart, so when you see the indicators on different timeframes you actually see different instances of the indicator. If you attach your indicator to M5 timeframe you will not see it on M30 timeframe of the same chart.

This was done with optimization purpose. Because it is very time consuming to recount all indicators when you change timeframe. So, that's why every indicator is linked to a specific timeframe to avoid extra calculations when you change timeframes. If you need, for example, this indicator on timeframe 5 and 15 then place 2 indicators on both timeframes.

When you apply new indicator to the chart you can choose the timeframes where to show, after that several independent indicator instances are created and you cannot choose the timeframes again, only edit the settings of each instance separately.
