Posting this because since u trade Nat gas and use Sierra .. maybe we can compare values
I guess a few questions
a) for Yesterday Low/high/close . do u take the entire session or a specific open timeframe? like 9 am EST - XXX
b) Using Sierra I have High/Low timeperiod extended looking back 1 day. but doesnt matter what setting i change.. i think the value does not change - could you please help with the right setting
c) For daily pivots .. is there any special tweak to the setting or just default that u like
thanks in advance

I have SC but not using it. I am using MC and TOS exclusively these days.
I prefer ETH sessions for all pivots, Y Low/high/close (i.e In SC I check "Use Evening Session" box)
My timings for CL and NG are CST (Central)
8:00:00 to 13:30:00
and evening session
13:30:01 to 07:59:59
I guess I did compare with inletcap's and TOS pivots using above timings and that compared well.
I guess if you use above timings your High/Low for Time Period - Extended should be good I guess...try it out.

Opportunity costs killing me these days....
Missed second long entry on NG by 3 ticks.
Missed TF short because I am scared to short
Missed Gold short and long
Oil I was in short but by mistake I entered May contract instead of April so I closed that May contract for break even.
Missed opportunities all over the place...at least I am not forcing the trades that's a big POSITIVE sign .
