I am familiar with Pivot Points but I am not sure what a Pivot Point Average is. Can you elaborate?

I am still not clear what values are being averaged. Once the R2 is established, what is it averaged with to create your indicator?

robert44,
I'm guessing to some extent, but you may wish to try the following. Use the desired Moving Average Period and Type in the Custom Indicator (If the Smoothing Average is set to 1, it will just Plot the value of the appropriate Pivot Point). When plotted as Custom Indicators, they should work in the displayed timeframe.

Average of Pivot Point - Current:

Select Chart Template | Add Indicator | Indicator
- Visible: Checked
- Center Zero Line: Unchecked
- Plot using price scale: Checked
- Smoothing Average: ?
- Average Type: Simple or Exponential
- Indicator Formula: (H + L + C) / 3

Average of Resistance Level 1 - Current:

Select Chart Template | Add Indicator | Indicator
- Visible: Checked
- Center Zero Line: Unchecked
- Plot using price scale: Checked
- Smoothing Average: ?
- Average Type: Simple or Exponential
