I took that to mean that it was done in a similar manner to how the pivots are calculated with the click of a button.
pretty sure that was a slip of the tongue...

I will agree with Dove here.....before using the 1700et pivot time i was averaging alittle over 600 pips monthly....now i have doubled that total and even tripled this some months.....and trading only the dollar/yen....this pair is usually predictable......i'm loving it......i am a believer if it works don't fix it....
Smiling - that is good...... don't fix it.

Interesting, my version of Accucharts (7.0.0.563) has always grabbed the Friday prices for the Sunday pivots, all settings at default.

I guess I should have ALSO mentioned my trading sessions are set up different from default. Never really think of that. That settles when my daily candles close and open very nicely. If I have a problem, I'm not aware of it... If I've missed something, please tell me. Seriously.

I opened a new chart to check what the default settings were and they matched your shot. So that may be of some help. If the bottom box is checked it will apply that setting to all docs for that page, otherwise if you create a new page, it may not match the others until you change it, and who can remember all that?

edit: I now remember putzing around with those settings once. All I managed to do was confuse myself and screw things up. Every chart I have has the same settings now, and all seems smooth.

Here's my setup for getting weekly pivots out of accucharts, but it's the same principal as using a pivot calculator.

Remember to check all 3 user defined boxes for HLC. Then all you do once each week is enter new data from the new completed weekly candle. I keep them on weekly virtual page and just toggle over to it when needed, never in the way.

Calling it a night here, green ones to all.

The run up in Frankies Hour stopped at the Feb 14 high and then pulled back as gold started to rally.

Now price is in the wedge formed by the faster and slower gann lines.

Data due at 8:30 am EDT, 9 am and the Helicopter Ben's speaking at 10 am - lets see what happens......

I posted a Daily Pivot indicator before but if prices moves over the weekend then it does not work correctly [as per Doves method of plotting]

I hacked another indicator I found so I can manually input the values, maybe it will useful for others..... also you can use the calculator pointed out by Dove in this post....... to calculate or recheck pivots.

I believe you meant Weekly PP because Central pivot is something different :

Pivot Point - H+L+C/3

Central Pivot - open candel at 17:00 ET (weekly = 1.5380)

Nah, it gets active when USD/JPY has some vector, i.e. momentum. We are in the dormant hours with low liquidity now, so nothing interesting is happening

I believe it's because typically the afternoons are slow. Things pick up around Tokyo session.

Summary:


Our stops survived the overnight surge and the trade has shifted back in the money with the pair trading below the 100-Day SMA. Price needs to close below the latter to keep pressure on the downside and our bias remains bearish with room for deeper setbacks following the expected failure by the 200-Day SMA at the multi-day channel top. Only close above 200-Day negates. (JK) 19:24 GMT

R1 - 108.55

PP - 108.22

S1 - 107.88
S2 - 107.55
S3 - 107.21

The daily Central pivot is at the 108.20
