Pivot indicators - page 12

 

Anyone

Sorry I will try again. Could anyone help me in getting a pivot based moving average. I am looking for an indicator that will plot the pivot point for a certain period as a moving average?

Hello everyone, I have been reading John Persons new boo with his COMAS method and was hoping to find someone that has built his indicator. The indicator is a moving avergae of 1 3 period pivot witrh an overaly of another moving average of 1 period pivot. Can anyone code this? I can share the rerst of the system if anyone is interested. I have noticed similiar requests but have not found the indicator, so maybe it does exist here already

I believe this is already made it.

Take a search.

I remember some indicators like dynamic pivots and others.

I've seen Person's dvd "Forex Conquered". All you need to do on a daily chart is create a simple 3-period moving average and use "Typical Price", and then create another one using 1 period and Typical Price. The crossovers are exactly what he discusses. Mission accomplished.

 

can you explain what you mean by typical price and what you mean about "use" it? I thought its a 3 period Pivot moving average not just a simple moving average?

When you create the MA's, select "Typical Price" in the Apply To dropdown. Typical Price is (H+L+C)/3, and is what Person uses for the daily pivot value. When the 1-Period MA crosses up over the 3-Period MA, this indicates a bullish period and you trade between the S1 and R2 pivots keeping an eye out for high-close and low-close doji's near the support/resistance lines. When the 1-Period MA crosses down, that indicates a bearish period and you trade between R1 & S2. It actually works pretty good.

No problemo, EnkiJr....my pleasure to help out.

I'll drop by and check out "ERIDU".

 

thank you

Bluto,

Exactly what I was looking for, thank you very much. I really enjoyed both of Persons books and wondered how this method would work. I already use pivots but this seems interesting. Have you actually used it?

Yes I have and yes it does work. Someday soon, I plan to develop an EA based on this idea.

Cheers,
