I want to change the frametime in fxblue technical analysis from 1h (the default value) to 5m but i can’t click its pop-up button.
here is the code i tried:
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import csv
import os
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome(os.getcwd() + '/chromedriver')
url = "https://www.fxblue.com/market-data/technical-analysis/EURUSD"
driver.get(url)
time.sleep(5)
timestamp = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="TimeframeContainer"]').click()
at this point I can see the pop-up with the timeframes but I couldn’t find a way to change the timeframe.
>Solution :
The elements in the Timeframe pop-up is in an iframe. Need to switch to frame to interact with the elements contained in it.
# Imports required
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.wait import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
driver.get("https://www.fxblue.com/market-data/technical-analysis/EURUSD")
wait = WebDriverWait(driver,30)
# Click on timestamp button.
timestamp = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID,"txtTimeframe")))
timestamp.click()
# Switch to iframe.
wait.until(EC.frame_to_be_available_and_switch_to_it((By.XPATH,"//iframe[contains(@class,'DialogInnerIframe')]")))
# click on M5 button.
fivemin = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH,"//div[@class='TimeframeItem' and text()='M5']")))
fivemin.click()
# Switch to default content to interact with other elements.
driver.switch_to.default_content()
