[Question on the auto pivot TA]

sure mt4 looks a bit dated but is still the most popular platform on the planet because it can do so much.

The problem with Sunday's shortened daily candle is that it mucks up the calculations for Monday's pivot points so an indicator that will ignore the Sunday candle and use Friday's instead gives the true PPs for Monday.

You can draw your own lines for Monday from a PP calc web page by imputing Friday's OHLC (or just use mt4 😉)

Yeh I tend to just use sundays pivot points as thats based off fridays data and price does seem to react to it. I may get into using MT4, I have it downloaded, it just looks confusing  I do wonder why IG can't just make it an option to allow daily/weekly/monthly pivots all at the same time, doesn't seem like a monumental task.

Hi, not on the IG web based platform, you can on the IG MT4 platform where you can reload multiple indicators with different settings and many have a 'ignore Sunday data' setting.

Such a shame. MT4 is so ugly and confusing to use. IG is just great to look at, but this is my only problem. I can avoid the sunday data by just using sundays pivot points. I guess i'll just have to plot weekly pivots each week...

Asked on the FX exchange thread however received no reply so hopefully one of the IG team can answer me here. Can you plot daily/weekly/monthly pivot's all at the same time?Switching between can be tedious. Also is it possible to ignore Sundays data? As this seems to mess with the pivot system as it calculates based on the 3 hours the market is open on Sunday.

Also is there anyway to ignore sundays data as this seems to mess with mondays pivot points.

Is it possible to add daily/weekly/monthly pivot's on the chart all at the same time. I find it frustrating having to switch between daily and weekly so often to see if I'm running into some hidden resistance.
