Pivot points are calculated based on the previous day's values - according to the most common formulas on the web - and serve as an important tool for many traders, especially in day trading.
They indicate possible resistance and support where increased buyer and seller interest can be expected.
This Pivot-Points-Trailing-Stop-Helper includes my Pivot Points Collection indicator and, based on your settings, gradually moves the SL to the corresponding pivot levels as soon as the current price exceeds a higher (long position) or
lower (short position) level.
The SL can be set to the last or penultimate level - from the perspective of the current price.
If desired, a distance between the SL and the desired level can be set. This distance can be changed step by step depending on the tick size of the corresponding symbol.
Changes to the settings can only be made when the Pivot-Points-Trailing-Stop-Helper is not in "Running" mode.
Changed settings only have an effect on an SL that has already been set if it moves the SL closer in the trading direction!
If no corresponding SL can be set automatically due to the settings and the current price, the trader should set an initial SL manually!
Important: The Pivot-Points-Trailing-Stop-Helper cannot be used in the strategy tester!
