Hi guys,

I am looking for a basic pivot points indicator for Multicharts Power language. I need to see daily, weekly and monthly pivots points on intra day charts.
I have one that works perfectly on Tradestation, unfortunately it is not compatible at all with Power language.
Thank you all!

Do you get an error when you attempt to compile the code from TradeStation?

Yes, a lot of errors.
I am not a coder but I still think this is not "usual easylanguage".

I just attached the Pivot Points I use with Tradestation. It could help someone.

Thanks for your help.

Sorry to get your hopes up but I was not able to compile it in Multicharts due to my lack of programming knowledge. I was thinking it was a standard indicator that just needed minor changes but nope, this is a crazy indicator. It is strange as if it is using the object orientated and easy language both.

Fonz,

I just downloaded it and it did not compile either.

First question. On your inputs, you have a "[" followed by DisplayName etc... Is that commentary? If so, you should use "{" instead of "[". Let me know what you are trying to do there.

 
Code
inputs:
	int PivotCalcType( 1 ) [
		DisplayName = "PivotCalcType", 
		ToolTip = "Pivot Calculation Type.  Enter 1 for Classic pivots; enter 2 for Traditional pivots; enter 3 for Camarilla pivots."],

Hi Fan,

This code works well on Tradestation. I was never able to make it work on Multicharts. I think Easylanguage now contains to many objects and variables to make it compatible with Power language, which is more the old Easylanguage style. Just my opinion, as I am so bad at coding. You can remove the [ ], that will still not compile.

Thanks for your help!
