Customizing pivot point

[Mark_486]

How can I create code stating that the price is at least 50 pips away from the next upcoming pivot before entering a position?

Not sure what you mean about "upcoming" pivot. There is no way to get data in the future.

i presume you mean daily pivot point, R1, R2, etc..... ? if so, there is a way.

Yes, by "upcoming" I mean r1, r2, etc, based on where the price currently is.

Please let me know how to code that the price is 50 pips or more away from the next upcoming pivot. The next pivot that I'm looking to is based on the direction of the trend.

if (Math.Abs(Close[0] - Pivots(PivotRange pivotRangeType, HLCCalculationMode priorDayHLC, int width).R1[int barsAgo]) / TickSize > 50)
// Do something

if using subpips use 500 instead of 50.
