Syntax
Pivots(PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width)
Pivots(IDataSeries inputData, PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width)

Returns pivot point value
Pivots(PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).PP[int barsAgo]
Pivots(IDataSeries inputData, PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).PP[int barsAgo]

Returns R1 value
Pivots(PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).R1[int barsAgo]
Pivots(IDataSeries inputData, PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).R1[int barsAgo]

Returns R2 value
Pivots(PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).R2[int barsAgo]
Pivots(IDataSeries inputData, PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).R2[int barsAgo]

Returns R3 value
Pivots(PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).R3[int barsAgo]
Pivots(IDataSeries inputData, PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).R3[int barsAgo]

Returns S1 value
Pivots(PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).S1[int barsAgo]
Pivots(IDataSeries inputData, PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).S1[int barsAgo]

Returns S2 value
Pivots(PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).S2[int barsAgo]
Pivots(IDataSeries inputData, PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).S2[int barsAgo]

Returns S3 value
Pivots(PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).S3[int barsAgo]
Pivots(IDataSeries inputData, PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).S3[int barsAgo]


Return Type
double; Accessing this method via an index value [int barsAgo] returns the indicator value of the referenced bar.


Parameters

inputData

Indicator source data (?)

pivotRangeType

Sets the range for the type of pivot calculated. Possible values are:

PivotRange.Daily

PivotRange.Weekly

PivotRange.Monthly

priorDayHLC

Sets how the prior range High, Low, Close values are calculated. Possible values are:

HLCCalculationMode.CalcFromIntradayData

HLCCalculationMode.DailyBars

HLCCalculationMode.UserDefinedValues


Examples

// Prints the current pivot point value
double value = Pivots(PivotRange.Daily, HLCCalculationMode.DailyBars, 20).PP[0];
Print("The current Pivots pivot value is " + value.ToString());

// Prints the current S2 pivot value
double value = Pivots(PivotRange.Daily, HLCCalculationMode.DailyBars, 20).S2[0];
Print("The current Pivots S2 pivot value is " + value.ToString());
