Multitimeframe charts with bar replay?

I want to replay bar charts with multiple timeframes at the same time.

So I want to replay 1 min, 3 min, 5 min and 1 hour charts of the same instrument at the same time.
Please tell me how it can be done ?

Lets consider 4 Timeframes.

  1. Open 4 charts,
    select Menu > Window > Tile Horizontally
    You should now have a grid of 4 charts in AB main window. Lets assume we're not in multi-monitor setup etc for now

  2. "Symbol Link" all the charts with the same "Color" (Eg. Link 1 for all)

  3. select the required TF in each chart. (1m, 3m, 5m, 1H)

  4. Interval Lock each chart.
    Both symbol Link and Interval Lock features are after the tabs in each chart MDI tab after chart sheets

  5. Select your symbol (You should now see the same symbol in all charts)

  6. Goto Tools > Bar Replay
    Select the appropriate fields in the window, make sure Step-Interval = 1m, that's your smallest chart interval for best results.

  7. Click the Play button and watch the charts.

Thank you so much.
I am actually replaying 1,3 and 5 min charts.

I could see that 1 minute charts are replaying by 1 candle minimum. How do I see them forming in real time( of 1 minute) ?

Then you need to select a lower TF than that like N-second or whatever your base time interval etc provided you have that resolution data as well.

For related read, check this topic. TJ clarifies that bar replay has to be time based, so don't ask if tick chart works :slight_smile:
