Backtesting Multi-Timeframe Strategies is not possible. Their triggers occur in the current moment. They will continually appear and disappear every tick until the higher aggregation candle closes. It is not possible to "capture" the moments.

Because of the repainting nature of MTF signals, and because it is not possible to capture those triggers and backtest for their profitability, MTF strategies for backtesting are not viable.
Yes, there was one MTF Backtesting Strategy posted erroneously to the forum. It has been removed.

This does not imply that Multi-Timeframe studies are not critical to chart analysis and cannot be profitable. It only means that backtesting has no value.

Always include all three of your timeframes in your chart analysis.
Research consistently shows that no matter whether scalper, day trader, or swinger, the three-timeframe evaluation is the single most important factor in determining the profitability of trades.
