Hi Guys,
I am new to this forum, and just started to test my trading methods on forex. I work on pivot trading system in indian markets. And same method i want to use on Meta Trader4.
Below i am attaching an image of my method and its code.
I will be extremely helpfull to the forum members, if any body can code this for me. The code i am giving is amibroker code so that one can understand the coding method used. I want the same code for mt4 and not the mt4 to amibroker plugin. So if any body can help please look at the image below: -

// filter lines
