#MTF AlaskanPipAssassin

This script is designed to show you the state of a custom trading indicator called "AlaskanPipAssassinMod" on a different timeframe than the one you're currently viewing on your chart.

Here's a breakdown:

It's a Multi-Timeframe (MTF) Indicator: The core purpose is to display information from a different timeframe (e.g., hourly) on your current chart (e.g., 5-minute). You choose the timeframe you want to see through the "TimeFrame" input setting. If you set "TimeFrame" to 60, you'll be seeing hourly values on your current chart.
Configuration: The script takes several inputs:
- TimeFrame: Specifies which timeframe's data will be used for the indicator calculation (e.g., 1 for 1-minute, 60 for 1-hour, 240 for 4-hour, etc.).
- CountBars: How many of the past bars will be considered on the "AlaskanPipAssassinMod" calculations.
- SSP, Kmin, Kmax: These are parameters that are passed to the "AlaskanPipAssassinMod" indicator. These parameters most likely affect how the "AlaskanPipAssassinMod" indicator is calculated.
How it Works (Simplified):
- It takes the chosen "TimeFrame" and gets the values of the "AlaskanPipAssassinMod" indicator from that timeframe.
- It plots two lines on your current chart, each representing an output of the "AlaskanPipAssassinMod" indicator, based on the values from the different timeframe.
- It uses a loop to go through recent bars on your current chart. For each bar, it finds the corresponding value from the "AlaskanPipAssassinMod" indicator on the selected "TimeFrame".
The "AlaskanPipAssassinMod" Indicator: This is a separate, custom indicator that this script relies on. This script doesn't calculate the indicator itself; it uses the values calculated by that indicator. It takes the indicator's output, shifts the time-frame and draws it on the main chart.
Alerts: This script is also configured to produce alert messages depending on the "AlaskanPipAssassinMod" indicator on different timeframes and current price values.

In essence, this script acts as a bridge, bringing the "AlaskanPipAssassinMod" indicator's data from a different timeframe onto your current chart, allowing you to see how that indicator is behaving on that other timeframe without switching charts.
