This is a great pivot tool used by seasoned traders to set support and resistance levels, and top of and bottom of the daily pivot channel set from the previous days trading. expansion and contraction is notable and trading usually hits these resistance levels quite often. I was "Trying to formulate" these lines projected onto the trading day from the previous day [open, close, high and low, not really sure if TOS can pull these values], where Halcyonguy has provided a great bit of knowledge into the script. Thanks and enjoy
Def Pivot = (high + low + close)/3
Def BC = ( high + low ) / 2
Def TC = ( pivot - BC ) + Pivot
Def S1 = 2 x pivot - high
Def S2 = pivot -( high - low )
Def S3 = S1 - ( high - low )
Def S4 = S3 - ( S1 - S2 )
Def R1 = 2 x pivot - low
Def R2 = pivot + (high - low )
Def R3 = R1 + ( high - low )
Def R4 = R3 + ( R2 - R1 )
Def Pivot = (high + low + close)/3
Def BC = ( high + low ) / 2
Def TC = ( pivot - BC ) + Pivot
Def S1 = 2 x pivot - high
Def S2 = pivot -( high - low )
Def S3 = S1 - ( high - low )
Def S4 = S3 - ( S1 - S2 )
Def R1 = 2 x pivot - low
Def R2 = pivot + (high - low )
Def R3 = R1 + ( high - low )
Def R4 = R3 + ( R2 - R1 )
