Using More Than One Time Frame in a System

I'd like to create a system with two time-frames (20m and 4hour bars) in MultiCharts, but I haven't been able to locate any information on how to reference another time series. Is there a switch of sorts? Any help is most welcome.

Re: Using More Than One Time Frame in a System

Data

Used to specify a particular data series in a multi-symbol chart; each data series in a multi-symbol chart has a unique Data Number.

Usage

DataN

Where: N - the Data Number of the data series

Or:

Data(N)

Where: N - a numerical expression specifying the Data Number of the data series

Examples

High Of Data2 will return the high price of a bar in the data series with the Data Number of 2

High Of Data(2) will return the high price of a bar in the data series with the Data Number of 2
