Description

Follow my cTrader Telegram group at https://t.me/cTraderCommunity; everyone can talk about cTrader indicators and algorithm without restrictions, though it is not allowed to spam commercial indicators to sell them. There's also a Discord Server now @ https://discord.gg/5GAPMtp and an Instagram page https://www.instagram.com/ctrader_community/

This is just a different take from Carlos' (https://ctrader.com/algos/indicators/show/2017) pivot points, it's a monthly-weekly-daily classic pivots but with no output series associated, so pivot lines cannot be select by accident.

There's also a bungh of additional features, like the option to draw only certain levels or adding an area between the 2nd and 3rd pivots, just graphical stuff

UPDATE:added other types of pivot, thanks to Roman_Volodko https://ctrader.com/users/profile/Roman_Volodko for help and suggestions received

Added 12Hour TF as well as an option to force the calculation using Closing price instead of typical price

N.B. Code is super compact and probably hard to read for the majority of programmers, i know, i like it this way, sorry.

ERRATA CORRIGE: The indicator has been updated as of 16 october 2019 due to incorrect formulas for r3 and s3 standard pivot

UPDATE: 25/10/2019 indicator now includes 5th and 6th camarilla pivot, and a function to limit the number of historical pivots drawn. The TimeFrame limitation has been removed
