I've looked at the use of the Pivot Point indicator and the description suggests contacting support if a desired formula is not there. I would look for a modification that adds a user-defined constant to the Pivot Point indicator (a) the user needs to be able to define the Pivot Point e.g. Yesterdays Close, Today's Open (in particular), High-of-day, Low-of-day [intraday], OR even using a User-Defined value would have good use. (b) select the user defined constant input e.g. 5 Then the formula would be * *Resistance Level 1 (R1)* = PivotPoint + UserDefinedConstantx1 * *Resistance Level 2 (R2)* = PivotPoint + UserDefinedConstantx2 * *Resistance Level 3 (R3)* = PivotPoint + UserDefinedConstantx3 * *Resistance Level 4 (R4)* = PivotPoint + UserDefinedConstantx4 * *Support Level 1 (S1)* = PivotPoint - UserDefinedConstantx1 * *Support Level 2 (S2)* = PivotPoint - UserDefinedConstantx2 * *Support Level 3 (S3)* = PivotPoint - UserDefinedConstantx3 * *Support Level 4 (S4)* = PivotPoint - UserDefinedConstantx4 A line would appear at each level. Would it possible to use such an indicator on intraday charts that would plot similar type Resistance and Support lines if the Pivot Point could be selected as the Current High-of-the-day or the Current Low-of-the-day? |

We really recommend you develop your own study for this. This is too extensive of a change and addition for us to be supporting. It is significantly different than the existing Pivot Points study.

Is it possible for users to use the code of the pivot point study and modify it to suit their own use. If so how can one get it? Thanks PS I've read the custom studies documentation (above) in the sierra charts ACSIL but it references a folder with examples of studies which i was unable to find the Pivot Point indicator code |

Yes. Refer to: https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/BuildCustomStudiesDLL.html#SearchingSourceCodeBuiltIn The core calculation code is located in the /ACS_Source/SCStudyFunctions.cpp file Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
