We do not know what the formula should be for support and resistance lines 4. According to our notes these are from www.shadowtrader.net. If you let us know what the formula is, we can add it.

Thank you so much for your help. Let me know when done and I will try it out. See below for R4 / S4 - PIVOT = (High + Close + Low)/3 R4 = High + 3(Pivot – Low) R3 = High + 2(Pivot – Low) R2 = Pivot + (R1 – S1) R1 = (2Pivot) – Low S1 = (2Pivot) – High S2 = Pivot – (R1 – S1) S3 = Low – 2(Hi – Pivot) S4 = Low – 3(Hi – Pivot)

Another problem with the latest release over this issue - Now, 1. R2 does not show up for Formula Type 8. 2. The formula as passed to you earlier does not seem to match Formula Type = 8. Will appreciate if you can please check. Below is the shadow trader formula yet again - PIVOT = (High + Close + Low)/3 R4 = High + 3(Pivot – Low) R3 = High + 2(Pivot – Low) R2 = Pivot + (R1 – S1) R1 = (2Pivot) – Low S1 = (2Pivot) – High S2 = Pivot – (R1 – S1) S3 = Low – 2(Hi – Pivot) S4 = Low – 3(Hi – Pivot)

This still does not work unless it was taken care of in 1444 release? Can you please confirm?

So, I installed 1444 as well and the inconsistency remains. It works for ES, NQ and not for any other products like GC and CC?????

I meant it does not work for Gold, Crude and Natural Gas and the like.

Increase the Number of Days to Calculate input to see if they then appear. Also would be better if you use the Pivot Points-Daily study instead.

Problem with Pivot Points - Daily is that formula # 8 is not programmed accurately(see above for this chat message exchanges). It appears that the changes were done just for PivotPoints-Variable Period and not for Pivot Points - Daily. Including the # 8 shadow trader type formula yet again below for you to update the Pivot Points-Daily study.- PIVOT = (High + Close + Low)/3 R4 = High + 3(Pivot – Low) R3 = High + 2(Pivot – Low) R2 = Pivot + (R1 – S1) R1 = (2Pivot) – Low S1 = (2Pivot) – High S2 = Pivot – (R1 – S1) S3 = Low – 2(Hi – Pivot) S4 = Low – 3(Hi – Pivot) Can you confirm this to be the case before I use the proposed study?

The formula is correct for both of the studies because they share the same formula. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.
