Specifying a timeframe in a plot indicator

I have this code that I use to draw the 5 minutes chart moving averages on the seconds based time frames but not on the higher time frames:

//@version=4 study("5min MAs", overlay=true) plot(timeframe.isseconds ? security(syminfo.tickerid, '5', ema(close[1],9), lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on) : ema(close,9) , title="9EMA", color=#ff6d00, linewidth=1) plot(timeframe.isseconds ? security(syminfo.tickerid, '5', ema(close[1],20), lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on) : ema(close,20) , title="20EMA", color=#ffeb3b, linewidth=1) plot(timeframe.isseconds ? security(syminfo.tickerid, '5', sma(close[1],200), lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on) : sma(close,200) , title="200SMA", color=#ff2fbb, linewidth=1) 

I'd like the code to also be able to draw the 5 min based MAs on the 1 and 2 minute charts along with the seconds time frames. I tried using the timeframe.isintraday instead of timeframe.isseconds function but the 5 min based MAs are also drawn on the time frames above 5 minutes (eg. 30min, 60min etc.) which I don't want.

Is there a way to isolate only for the 1 and 2 minutes timeframes? I think I need to declare a variable with timeframe.period but I am not sure how to integrate it.

Thanks, Eric

I managed to figure it out

//@version=4 study("5min MAs", overlay=true) plot(timeframe.isseconds or (timeframe.isintraday and (timeframe.multiplier <= 2)) ? security(syminfo.tickerid, '5', ema(close[1],9), lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on) : ema(close,9) , title="9EMA", color=#ff6d00, linewidth=1) plot(timeframe.isseconds or (timeframe.isintraday and (timeframe.multiplier <= 2)) ? security(syminfo.tickerid, '5', ema(close[1],20), lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on) : ema(close,20) , title="20EMA", color=#ffeb3b, linewidth=1) plot(timeframe.isseconds or (timeframe.isintraday and (timeframe.multiplier <= 2)) ? security(syminfo.tickerid, '5', sma(close[1],200), lookahead=barmerge.lookahead_on) : sma(close,200) , title="200SMA", color=#ff2fbb, linewidth=1)
