  • Floor Trader Pivot Points

    I have been trying to locate this study or formula in version 7.4 (build 608), but so far all I have found is a pivot console. This thing has way to many features for my needs. All i'm looking for is something that allows me to place horizontal lines on an advanced graph, corresponding to R1 R2 S1 and S2.
    Any ideas or help is appreciated.

      Thanks for the help, but using a 3min ES chart, the pivots are all quite removed from each other. It appears the scaling is off even when I autoscale the chart

        I think there are a couple of issues at work here.

        When AutoScaling in ON and ScalePriceData Only is ON, you might not see the pivots for today, depending on how much data is on the chart. If you scroll backward the pivots will show.

        Try Keeping AutoScale ON and turning off ScalPriceDataOnly.

          There may be a study similar to what you are describing called TJ's Web. It is in the Advanced GET window. For more information on how it works and examples, click here.

            intraday pivots

            I appreciate everyone's assistance, but it seems the pivot console only applies to daily,monthly charts. I'm looking for a formula that will allow me to see these pivots in realtime on intraday charts. All I really need is included in the equations below. Is there an EFS that allows me to do this?
            Thanks to all.

            Pivot point = P = (H + L + C)/3
            First area of resistance = R1 = 2P - L
            First area of support = S1 = 2P - H
            Second area of resistance = R2 = (P -S1) + R1
            Second area of support = S2 = P - (R2 - S1)

              cereus,

              Click on the "V" button in the Pivots Console to turn on the intraday Pivots, and then you can adjust the time of that intraday Pivot using the varPivot parameter in the Pivot Console.

              For example, here's a 21-minute pivot on a 1 minute chart.

              Regards,

                    Thanks Alex.

                    How do you scroll down the list of parameters to edit them?
                    I can only see about 7 prameters.

                          toFixed(n) where n is the number of decimals you want. For example close().toFixed(2) will limit the value to 2 decimals.
                          If you want the numbers to appear formatted as in the chart use formatPriceNumber(nValue) where nValue is the value you want to plot. For example formatPriceNumber(close())

                            When I use the Formula Output window to display results, sometimes I want to control the number of digits to the right of the decimal point AND/OR to the left.

                            toFixed(2) shows to two digits to the right of the decimal, how do I show 2 digits to the right, even if the number is between 0-10.

                            Also, the + and - signs mess up the formatting, any way to show pad a 'space' inot a positive number?
