Custom Pivot

Basically this is a standard Pivot point indicator. I added BC and BT lines.

TC = (Pivot - BC) + Pivot BC = (High + Low)/2

You must download both files.

custom pivot.lua

custom pivot.lua.rc

These establish the Pivot Range as outlined by Mark Fisher in “The Logical Trader”.

His Description:

The pivot range is where the market is likely to find support or meet resistance. If it manages to break through the pivot range, the market would likely make a significant move in that direction.

Can the option of moving the beginning of the Floor Pivot be included?

I want to be able to have my pivots calculated and displayed from GMT+2.

Regards,

Philip

Hi, In the old version of pivot indicator when the historical levels are plotted the lines were not connected but in the new version they are all connected making the chart untidy.Any chance of plotting historical levels unconnected in new version? ps there is an error message when trying to plot old version “pivot.lua 310 unknown label location”

Thanks

Currently only pivot (gray) lines are connected in historical mode (not all lines). The indicator works this way for a last few years.

If you need the pivot lines without connections, the indicator should be re-written.

Thankyou for your prompt response

Do I understand correctly that you are using the standard pivot version which is located in this folder? C:\Program Files\Candleworks\FXTS2\indicators\Standard

If so, please tell me the version of your FX Trading Station (it can be checked in the Help menu -> About command). Also please post a screenshot with the error message you get.

Hi! The fibonacci retracement pivots are super fiable. And I was wondering if is posible to add other levels like: -0.618 , -0.382 , -0.126 , 0.126 , 0.874 , 1.126 , 1.382 and 1.618.

Thanks!!
