Just an idea:

TimeFrameSet(in5Minute);
entryLong = Cross(MACD(),  Signal());
TimeFrameRestore();
entrylong = TimeFrameExpand (entrylong, in5Minute, expandFirst);

for ( i = 0; i< 12; i++)
{
Condition = Minute() == i*5 ;
Buy = entrylong && Condition;
PlotShapes(Buy * shapeUpArrow, colorGreen, 0, L);
}

Plot( C,  "", 39, styleBar);
