A Floor/Camarilla/VA indicator plotting by intraday/weekly/monthly sessions

[makefortune]

Pivots shown in this way- camarilla and DWM

Hi drmax,

If you are running Windows 7, put the attached C# file into following default folder:

C:\Users\YOUR USERNAME\Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom\Indicator

Then compile in NinjaTrader as usually you do.

Please let me know if you need more help.

Thanks,
weiwei

I am attaching screen shots of DWM pivots and camarilla pivots in MT4
Can you please modify your pivots in the manner shown.

I find it too distracting to show pivots of the past data and the two that I have attached has worked well for me. Now I am trying Ninjatrader and would hope someone can do the same. If there exist such indicators already, please attach to the reply.

Appreciate very much.
Manfred

Not sure what your question is but if you would like some alternatives to the standard indicators, have you tried looking here?

Search for "sessionpivotsv42"

Good luck.

Pivots can be displayed as

- daily, weekly, monthly pivots
- ETH (extended trading hour) pivots (requires ETH session template)
- RTH (regular trading hour) pivots (requires RTH session template or ETH segmented session template)
- pivots calculated from daily data (depends on your data supplier)
- for futures with the options to calculate them from settlement price (requires daily data)
- as floor pivots
- as wide floor pivots (different formula for R3, R4, S3 and S4)
- as Camarilla pivots
- as Fibonacci pivots
- as Jackson Zones

The indicator further allows to display the pivot range (see Mark Fisher's Logical Trader). You can select to display or not to display the pivots for the prior days.

This indicator is much more sophisticated than any MetaTrader pivots indicator that is available. If you need any recommendations on the use of session templates, do not hesitate to come back. As a rule the session template for each instrument should reflect the contractual trading times and be established in the time zone of the exchange. You should then save the session template under instrument settings and only open charts with <instrument settings>. This is a general rule, which is independent from any indicators.

The sample chart below shows original daily and weekly floor pivots for CL 07-13 and the pivot ranges

-> chart session template is ETH (6:00 PM EST - 9:00 AM EST/ 9:00 AM EST - 2:30 PM EST / 2:30 PM EST - 5:15 PM EST) in line with trading hours of NYMEX energy futures
-> indicator setting is RTH
-> the settlement price (taken from daily data) is used instead of the close
-> daily and monthly pivot range are based on RTH data
-> yesterday's regular high and low, prior week's high are shown
-> the pivots for yesterday have been unselected

*) CME does not publish a last traded price, but the settlement price which is the volume weighted average price determined during the daily settlement period prior to 2:30 PM EST)
