Using FloatPivot with a Selected Chart Timeframe

Summary

This document describes a timeframe-selection feature for the FloatPivot indicator. A user can choose the period used for the indicator through its input settings, with a four-hour period given as the example. This lets the indicator’s calculation period differ from the chart’s displayed period, although the document does not explain FloatPivot’s underlying calculation or how to interpret its output.

The description is chiefly a brief feature and setup note: FloatPivot depends on a separate indicator file being available in the platform’s indicator folder. It includes a figure reference but supplies no chart evidence, trading rules, or performance results. As a result, it teaches how to select a timeframe for this indicator, not whether FloatPivot provides a reliable signal or how it might fit into a trading strategy.

Key ideas

  • FloatPivot offers a setting for choosing the indicator’s timeframe.
  • The example uses a four-hour calculation period.
  • The indicator relies on a separate FloatPivot component.
  • The document does not explain the indicator’s calculations or trading performance.
