How To Reference Lower Timeframes

This document contains a Pine Script code for a trading indicator named 'PSMC - Lower Timeframe Dayta'. It retrieves and processes Average True Range (ATR) values and closing prices from a specified lower timeframe, allowing users to analyze historical data over a defined lookback period. The script includes functions for safely accessing array values and visualizing the ATR data on a chart.
