Hi Jorgen,

Thanks for the example. I was away, so I did not respond earlier.
Your method is straightforward : for any given period of the higher timeframe use current values of the lowest resolution timeframe, for previous periods of the the higher timeframe use the values at the end of these periods. To implement MA, using this method, is simple. To implement more complicated indicators would be a nightmare. To combine two data streams (one from higher timeframe and from the lowest timeframe) intelligently to produce more complex indicators is not worth the effort. Two separate charts: one for the higher timeframe and one for the lowest timeframe will do the job.
