Description & Settings
SSH is a famous indicator which uses moving average high and low prices of candles to draw two lines. The cross point of these two lines considered as signal for buy or sell.
Illustrating higher TFs (time-frames) in lower one is a preferred way of technical tracking of market. SSH Multi-TF prepares higher TF of this indicator in lower TFs.
Moreover, user can select higher TF from a small panel inside of chart without opening indicator input. Also, changing TF will change sort of Time-Frame buttons as we do not need lower time frame button to select.
