Re: [amibroker] Re: using 1 minute data to get pivot on daily chart - please help

Hello,

There is no *issue* anywhere. Just think a while.

Data exists and are available but *OBVIOUSLY* if
you have for example 100 EOD data entries, there is NO way
to fit thousands of 1-minute data bars INTO 100 elements of array.

You simply need to have PLACE to have these thousands of bars
accessible. You need thousands element array.

That's why you can have EOD accessible from 1-minute time interval
(because there is a PLACE for EOD bars - because there are fewer
EOD bars than 1-minute bars).

If you were to have it vice versa the underlying system would 
need to switch to the most frequent common denominator ANYWAY
and upsize the array and this will essentially be exatly the same
as running with 1-minute base. No gain. Just the opposite (extra step
making it slower).

Bottom line: there is NO sense in doing it other way round. It is like
wearing a t-shirt on top of a jacket.  You can do that but you will look silly.

Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko
