I'm trying to upgrade my code to be adaptable to any timeframe and I saw some code in this forum that I'm working with, but I need some help. Its at
https://usethinkscript.com/threads/mega-moving-average-for-thinkorswim.15858/post-129691

I'm not sure how to adapt this for my use, but I've given it a try. Here is what I have so far.
I want to code this for intraday all the way up to yearly timeframe. Does anyone have a suggestion? How can I automatically detect and code for changing timeframes.

Code: 
# Automatically detect the chart's time frame
def TimeFrame = GetAggregationPeriod();

def priceO = open(period = TimeFrame);
def priceH = high(period = TimeFrame);
def priceL = low(period = TimeFrame);
def priceC = close(period = TimeFrame);

Plot Line = PriceO;
Line.Hide();

AddLabel(yes, "TimeFrame is: " + If timeFrame < AggregationPeriod.Day Then "Intraday" else If timeFrame == AggregationPeriod.Day Then "Daily" else If timeFrame == AggregationPeriod.Week Then "Weekly" else If timeFrame == AggregationPeriod.Month Then "Monthly" else "Yearly"  , Color.Dark_Red);

def Choice;
switch (TimeFrame){
case "Day":
    Choice = GetDay();
case "Week":
    Choice = GetWeek();
case "Month":
    Choice = GetMonth();
case "Year":
    Choice = GetYear();
}

what are you trying to do?

it seems switch is causing an error with the agg variable.

GetAggregationPeriod() returns a number in milliseconds, a huge number. if you divide it by 60000, you have minutes.

getday(), getweek(),... return integers , 1 to 365, 52, 12,...

so if the formulas worked, they will never be equal.


here is something to determine what the chart time is
https://usethinkscript.com/threads/...icator-for-thinkorswim.1129/page-4#post-69106
 
My goal is to try to code the Square Of Nine on an intraday chart the way Optuma's SO9 tool displays the turn times. If someone knows of a ThinkScript code that can do this, please let me know.

Is there a way to get the previous value of the bubbles and make that as a label. Thanks

Can you please explain why did you inlcude "/ 10) * 30.437" in the following? why did you use 10 an 30.437?
# Next High in
def NH = (HighestHigh1 / 10) * 30.437;

# Next Low in
def NL = (LowestLow1 / 10) * 30.437;
