Aggregation Periods By Millisecond. For ThinkOrSwim

[PT_Scalper]

Hi all,

I have my ToS setup with 6 charts for different timeframes under the FlexGrid. Does anyone know if there is a way to add a label to the chart that dynamically shows the current chart timeframe?

I have looked everywhere but don't see a way to do it. Seems like ToS "AggregationPeriod" options are only static unless anyone knows otherwise;

Thanks in advance.

Yes it does and it shows it where you change the timeframe. I'm looking to see if there is a way to put it on the chart as a white label as it's easier to see than the screenshot above with the ticker, d/m and [NASDAQ].

Oh okay... got ya. Well, it's annoying but it can be done. You'd have to do the following but define all of the aggregation periods by millisecond.

def AP=getaggregationperiod();

addLabel(1,
if AP==86400000 then "Daily" else
if AP==60000 then "1min" else
if AP==300000 then "5min" else
"Other", color.white);

Do that for all the timeframes and you should be good.

Aggregation Periods By Millisecond
1 min = 60,000
2 min = 120,000
3 min = 180,000
4 min = 240,000
5 min = 300,000
10 min = 600,000
15 min = 900,000
20 min = 1,200,000
30 min = 1,800,000
1 hr = 3,600,000
2 hr = 7,200,000
4 hr = 14,400,000
Daily = 86,400,000
Weekly = 604,800,000
Monthly = 2,592,000,000

I would like to know whether ThinkorSwim provides 10-second, 20-second and 30-second charts as Tradingview does.

No, but it does allow for tick and range charts.

I like using this when I use the flexible grid and can't see the timeframes.

def AP=getaggregationperiod();

addLabel(1,

if AP==60000 then "1M" else
if AP==120000 then "2M" else
if AP==180000 then "3M" else
if AP==240000 then "4M" else
if AP==300000 then "5M" else
if AP==600000 then "10M" else
if AP==900000 then "15M" else
if AP==1800000 then "30M" else
if AP==3600000 then "1H" else
if AP==7200000 then "2H" else
if AP==14400000 then "4H" else
if AP==86400000 then "D" else
if AP==604800000 then "W" else
if AP==2592000000 then "M" else
"Other", color.white);
