Thank you for your contribution helping those who desire to learn how to help themselves for understanding & coding thinkscript for themselves. Does your sample Pivot confirmation code here alert either a bullish or bearish directional Pivot via sound only; visual only or both?

I'll stop with that basic question; don't want to get to ahead of myself. I learn best taking baby steps. Thank you.

Hello Experts - Can we add one text to the pivots please -- Time Summation for the pivot.

Say pivot was made at 9:33 ( Just use hour and minutes) - Then add Hour and minute digits = here example is 9+3+3 = 15 so plot 15 below or above the pivot depending on it if was low or high pivot.

If you open the study using the the customize icon, you will see it has audible alerts than can be toggled on and off.
