Pull in hourly width of Bollinger Band into Daily aggregation scan

[lostcoastsurf]

Is it possible to pull in a smaller time frame (hourly in this case) data into a Scan that has a daily aggregation period? Thus avoided the dreaded "Error: Secondary period not allowed: Day"

I would like to access the 2nd standard deviation on the bollinger band hourly chart for comparison to the daily ATR (Average True Range)

Thanks in advance.

It is not possible to have different aggregations within the same script in the Scan Hacker.
It is because of the fundamental way that the scan widget works.
Before you start to create the condition filters, you choose the aggregation period.
It is locked in.

After that, the scanner executes all filter conditions solely within the aggregation chosen.
If the scanner encounters an aggregation period within the filter script that doesn't match what has already been chosen; it produces the error message: "secondary aggregations not allowed".

However*
It is possible to put one filter for your ATR condition to be true on daily.
and add another filter for your BB condition to be true on hourly.

The scan will only return results if both are true.

How would you compare the two filters? Or is it not possible? If you are trying to compare the Daily ATR to the width of the Hourly Bollinger Band? So by placing the Daily ATR script/filter in one study, and the Hourly Bollinger Band width in the second script/filter study.... and wanting to compare the "width"/range between the Daily ATR and Hourly Bollinger Band width. (I hope that makes sense.)

No.

The ToS platform does not provide the ability to scan for the "width"/range between the Daily ATR and Hourly Bollinger Band width for the reasons explained in my above post.
