Excellent! Thanks a lot!

Had been looking for the 3rd video since it wasn't uploaded to vimeo. Thanks!

I have been looking on the web for a while for the other videos like this list thank you so much for posting them !!!!

If these videos are public domain, it would be best to attach them directly to your post. Attachments can be up to 1GB each when zipped, and up to 256MB each for mp4 or flv videos. If video is WMV or AVI, zip it first.

@Bookworm:

1) Does the code use the settlement price or the close for futures?
2) Does it calculate ETH or RTH pivots (I think that Mark Fisher originally used RTH, but then switched do ETH)
3) Does it include the A and C levels for trading breakouts?
4) Would you have a chart?

Thank you.

Fat Tails it would be great if you could translate this into Nijna. I have been waiting forever for this indicator. I am surprised no one else has requested for help with this indicator. Right now I currently draw it by hand and this would really save me some time. Hope it can be figured out.

Thanks

Thanks Book Worm, hopefully it can be translated into Ninja. Once again thanks.

@Bookworm: 1) Does the code use the settlement price or the close for futures? 2) Does it calculate ETH or RTH pivots (I think that Mark Fisher originally used RTH, but then switched do ETH) 3) Does it include the A and C levels for trading breakouts? 4) Would you have a chart? Thank you.

I stopped using eSignal years ago and just found these indicators on an old disk stored away so no charts. To be honest, by now this is like high school Spanish, a vague memory. At the time I was trading NEM, the gold stock, using NYSE hours. For stocks, unlike commodities, the A & C values are the same but it's been so long I don't remember how this indicator shows them. If nothing else it should give someone with better coding skills than me a decent head start on updating them. Good luck!
