incorrect pivot and prior ohlc

[markw]

I use a 5 minute chart and a 150 tic chart with the ninja indicators for pivots and prior ohlc. I checked on a pivots web site and the numbers are wrong. Do I need to set the indicators a certain way to correct this


Thanks

Hello,

The NT Pivot indicator works off of the data you have displayed on the chart. This data will almost always differ from the data used by your Pivot website, so the Pivot calculations will almost always be different. Also, the PC clock time you use will alter the "days" data as well.

This is the nature of pivots, unless you are using the exact same data and exact same time (down to the second) as your website, it is impractical to get them to match.

You do have the option to enter pivot values you want to use in the indicator manually: Select the Pivot indicator, Change PriorDayHLC to UserDefinedValues, then enter the User defined values you want the pivots to use.

hi Ben

Would you set the PC clock to Central or Eastern time for the pivots.



Thanks

Hi There
Load this indicator in and it should solve all your problems. It is excellent. Harry did a great job.
