Pivots Alerts on Radar Screen

Recommended Posts

I daytrade and I use 144 tick chart on the radar screen, I was just wondering if there is such a alert that I can set up in the radar screen that monitors stocks' pivots and gives you alerts like AAPL broke R1 or like AAPL reversing from R1, things like that.

It sounds like you are using floor pivots but there are others such as Camarilla and DeMark. I do use Radarscreen with pivots but it is for use with Forex. I don't have specific alerts for when price breaks a pivot level but I do have colour changes on the background when price gets close to a pivot level. For me I have daily, weekly and monthly time frames using Floor, Camarilla and DeMark Pivots. I look for a confluence of pivots and then use price action to take a trade.

 

Here is a screenshot of my RS set up.

I am sure it has been done already, tho I haven't seen it...

 

if you can write the spec... and make a screen mock up (with notes), I am sure something can be arranged.

Hey Paul, I do use floor pivots on the radar screen, however I don't see anywhere I can adjust the backgound colors when the price gets close, what indicator are you using? do you mind sharing it with me, thanks in advance..

The background colours are a line of code when price approaches the pivot point. I wrote the indicator myself but it is specific to how I use them. I will take another look at it and see what changes may be needed to make it easier for others to use. I only use R1, PP and S1 for floor pivots and I know others use R2 and S2 as well.

here is a screenshot of my radar screen, is there a way to add alerts to my pivots when the price cross or near. I also attached the floor trader eld that I use, can anyone help?below is the pivots indicator that I use, any programmer out there can assists?

Applies to daily, intra-day, and tick bar charts only.

 

Plots lines at floor trader pivot levels, based on the following formulae:

 

Resistance Level 3 = R3 = R2 + YestHigh - YestLow

Resistance Level 2 = R2 = PP + YestHigh - YestLow

Resistance Level 1 = R1 = PP * 2 - YestLow

PivotPoint = PP = ( YestHigh + YestLow + YestClose ) / 3

Support Level 1 = S1 = PP * 2 - YestHigh

Support Level 2 = S2 = PP - YestHigh + YestLow

Support Level 3 = S3 = S2 - YestHigh + YestLow

 

Input specifies whether R3 and S3 are plotted in addition to the 5 lines at PP, S1,

S2, R1, and R2.

}

 

inputs:

Plot_5or7( 5 ) ; { if 7, adds plots for S3 and R3 to other 5 lines }

S3( 0 ),

R3( 0 ),

YestHigh( 0 ),

TodaysLow( 0 ),

YestLow( 0 ),

TodaysClose( 0 ),

YestClose( 0 ),

{ increment Counter to be sure enough data is processed - see comment below }

R3 = R2 + YestHigh - YestLow ;

end

else

TodaysHigh = High ;

if Low < TodaysLow then

TodaysLow = Low ;

end ;

 

if Counter >= 2 and BarType < 3 then { if at least one full day's data has been

processed and chart bar interval is daily, intra-day, or tick bar then plot }

is there a way to add alerts to my pivots when the price cross or near.

 

Hi Ed

 

To do Alerts on a break of a pivot you would need to add these two lines to each pivot :

 

If Close crosses above PP then Alert( Getsymbolname +" crossed above PP");

If Close crosses below PP then Alert( Getsymbolname +" crossed below PP");

 

As for price getting near a pivot... well you would have to define "near" in terms of ticks then create a threshold around each pivot.... for example

 

Inputs:

Threshold (5);

 

Vars:

mintick(0),PPuppthresh(0),PPlwrthresh(0);

 

Mintick = minmove/pricescale;

 

PPuppthresh = PP + (Threshold*mintick);

PPlwrthresh = PP - (Threshold*mintick);

 

Then you would insert the two alert lines like shown above but change the setting to the threshold...

 

If Close crosses above PPlwrthresh then Alert( Getsymbolname +" just under PP");

If Close crosses below PPuppthresh then Alert( Getsymbolname +" just above PP");

 

.... and again, repeat for every pivot.

 

 

This should get you on your way.

 

Hope this helps

Depending if you run your code intrabar or on closed tick of bar, you may need to use a slightly different code.

 

If intrabar then use code in my last post or if used on closed tick of a bar use something like this :

 

 

Condition1 = Close crosses above PP;

 

If Condition1 then Alert( Getsymbolname +" crossed above PP");

 

Condition2 = Close crosses below PP;

 

If Condition2 then Alert( Getsymbolname +" crossed below PP");

 

Condition3 = Close crosses above PPlwrthresh;

 

If Condition3 and Condition1 = false then Alert( Getsymbolname +" just under PP");

 

Condition4 = Close crosses below PPuppthresh;

 

If Condition4 and Condition2 = false then Alert( Getsymbolname +" just above PP");

 

 

This would eliminate getting alerts of " just under PP" and "crossed above PP" on the same bar.

 

Hope this helps

Blu Ray , thanks for the quick reply, I really appreciate your hard work, I ran my code intrabar, I added the code you discribe, the alert on the cross is fine, but the near does not seems to be working, 5 ticks above and below should be fine, here is what I did, can you see where the errors at, thanks again...

ed16888,

 

Blu Ray has a much better understanding of your coding needs than I do as I am not that experienced in it. Also you are using a later version of TS than I am which would also makes it more difficult for coding your needs

 

Good Luck.

 

 

Paul

I've tested it and it works fine for me, the only thing I can think of is that you've set your inputs to 6 ticks away instead of 5.

 

Cheers

    • MDB MongoDB stock watch for a range breakout at https://stockconsultant.com/?MDB
    • Date: 12th November 2024. Market Buzz: Trump Trade Impact! “Trump trade” has boosted the US Dollar and US stocks, but Trump’s policies may have less favorable effects on global assets. Trump’s plan to raise tariffs is expected to negatively impact economies worldwide, especially exporters like China. Asia & European Sessions:   Bitcoin Surge! Bitcoin broke $90K, driven by Trump trade once again. Bitcoin is up roughly 110% in 2024, helped by robust demand for dedicated US ETFs, interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and Trump’s cryptofriendly agenda. Crypto market capitalization has exceeded its pandemic-era peak, reaching $3.1 trillion. Traders are betting on Bitcoin reaching $100,000 by year-end, according to data from the Deribit exchange. Open interest — or outstanding contracts — for CME Group Inc. futures for Bitcoin and second-ranked Ether (ETHUSD) scaled records on Monday, a sign of growing engagement by US institutional investors. Asian shares dropped, alongside European and US equity futures, as traders evaluated the implications of President-elect Donald Trump’s policy agenda and potential cabinet choices. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index fell for a third consecutive day, driven by rising Treasury yields amid concerns that Trump’s proposed tax cuts could increase inflation. There are also reports that Trump is considering two individuals for prominent roles in his administration with track records of criticizing China. DAX and FTSE100 are down -1.1% and -0.5% respectively, after a pickup in German HICP inflation and higher than expected UK wage growth dampened easing expectations. Investors await the US CPI report for insights into the Fed’s easing path, as Trump’s inflationary policies may lead to fewer rate cuts. Financial Markets Performance:   The USDIndex continues to rise and is currently at 105.75. It hit a 1-year high. EURUSD drifts to 1.0620 and GBPUSD is in a sell off, currently at 1.2800. Oil prices fell after their biggest 2-week decline, amid a weak demand outlook from China, a stronger US Dollar, and concerns over a potential oversupply. Crude oil has traded within a narrow range since mid-last month, influenced by Middle East tensions, the US election, and OPEC+ output decisions. Gold remains under pressure and is currently at just $2604.36 per ounce. It hit a one-month low, down 5% since Trump’s election victory, as a strong dollar and US equity rotation pressured the metal. Gold’s decline was also technical, breaking below the 50-day moving average, causing funds to cover long positions. Despite recent drops, gold remains up 25% for the year, supported by central bank purchases and geopolitical risks. Always trade with strict risk management.
