question about stochastics

[cbarnett808]

First, I am sorry if this is posted somewhere else. I am not very technically-minded.
I believe that the first number in stochastic is based upon timeframes being measured. Therefore, the standard 14-3-3 measures 14 periods.
What I would like to do is open a metatrader session based upon the 14-3-3 applied to 5 minute, 1 hour, and 1 day period all on the same 5 min chart.

Therefore, I believe I would:
1. insert stochastic indicators for 14-3-3 (for the 5 minute already open);
2. 168-3-3 (or 14 times the 12 5 minute periods in the hour) for the 1 hour;
3. and 4032-3-3 (or 14 times the 288 5 minute periods in 24 hours) for the 1 day.

Is this correct? Any help would be appreciated. I'm not even sure if I can have stochastics as high as 4032. Sorry again if this is posted somewhere else, or if it is just glaringly dumb.

well if you wanted to do that, yes, thats what you would do...
