Selecting custom timeframes

Hello,
There are many scripts/EAs/indicators that generate different offline chart types and they are characterized from a different timeframe of the same symbol. The generated renko chart from the indicator I am using is a 3M offline chart.
I was about to make an EA that is going to be placed on a 3M Offline Chart and also make decisions based on other custom charts like an 2M Offline Chart, or any other xM Chart that is not being used normally on MT4.
So I am seeking for the possibility to select custom timeframes.
If I were to compare the Close and Open of the last bar of a different offline chart it would be like this:
Close(PERIOD_M2)[1]>Open(PERIOD_M2)[1]

you are right, it is possible to use custom timeframes in the newest updates of MT4, we will add it also to EA Wizard.
We’ll release new update for EA Wizard later this week that will enable this.

Hello,
this new update only adds supports for additional timeframes that are available in new MT4 updates, mostly for offline charts.
I’m not sure if this will solve your problem with Renko charts,it is possible.

If it will be possible to select offline M2, M3, etc charts then it solves the problem.

MT4 lets you use custom timeframes now?
Without script?
Offline?
Offline/script is an old feature.

Here is the New Renko Chart Generator for MT4 Build 902 ( Work Perfectly )
If AutoCalcul is set to : False
⇒ The EA will act with the the following settings
*RenkoBoxSize = 10
*RenkoBoxOffset = 0
*RenkoTimeFrame= 0
*ShowWicks = False
*EmulateOnlineChart=True
*StrangeSymbolName= False
If AutoCalcul is set to : True
⇒ The EA will act with the the following settings
RenkoBoxSize = Spread
XFactor = Spread * Value ( Rule is RBS = Spread or , RBS = Spread*2 , RBS = Spread*3 )
Correction : Spread + Custom Value
Examples :
EUR/USD
( Spread = 3 , Xfactor = 1 , Correction =0 ) ⇒⇒ RenkoBoxSize =3
( Spread = 3 , Xfactor = 2 , Correction =0 ) ⇒⇒ RenkoBoxSize =6
( Spread = 3 , Xfactor = 3 , Correction =0 ) ⇒⇒ RenkoBoxSize =9
( Spread = 3 , Xfactor = 3 , Correction =1 ) ⇒⇒ RenkoBoxSize =10
For GOLD
( Spread = 75 , Xfactor = 1 , Correction =0 ) ⇒⇒ RenkoBoxSize =75
( Spread = 75 , Xfactor = 2 , Correction =0 ) ⇒⇒ RenkoBoxSize =150
( Spread = 75 , Xfactor = 3 , Correction =0 ) ⇒⇒ RenkoBoxSize =225
( Spread = 75 , Xfactor = 3 , Correction =275 ) ⇒⇒ RenkoBoxSize =500
For Gold, Silver , Stocks, CFDs , Indexes that have Higher Spread is best to turn On AUTOCALCUL to autodefine RenkoBoxSize
because is not possible to use RBS ( RenkoBoxSize : 10 for these pairs )
WARNING : is better to not use AutoCalcul Mode Based on spread if your brokers has FLOATING Spread ( Not Fixed Spread )
that will affect the stability of renko chart display each time you restart MT4 using different spread each time , may cause repaint or give fake with indicators or automated system.
