which version of mt?
in mt4 its easy
this would be your indicator (i had that already written myself and threw a few things out, so it should match your needs)

in mt3 its more difficult;)
you need to first run all bars back and save all the highs and lows of a day...
then you go the bars from left to right back to the most actual and everyday a new day is started you calculate the new pivot... i also wrote an indicator for mt3 but that is very slow... because of the 2 for-loops...

thank you shrak.....
i am sorry to say that i am using an older version of mt (3 i think). i appreceiate your code example as well as your suggestion for collecting the information necessary to find 'yesterday'. it is as awkward as i suspected, but....
i'll get on it soon.
thanks again

I would like to have it generic so it may appear on any given chart.
In order to achieve this i must get the high low and close from yesterdays trading session but not necessarily have the 1 day chart open.
I'm not having much luck.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
thanks
jimf
