Pivots High-Low Screener & Alerts
Dec 26, 2021

The Pivots High-Low Screener & Alerts indicator is a comprehensive scanning tool designed to identify and alert users of technical pivot points across multiple assets simultaneously. This script eliminates the need for opening numerous charts by monitoring up to 25 different tickers from a single interface, providing consolidated alerts for pivot high and pivot low formations.
Usage
To use the tool, apply it to a single chart and configure your desired timeframe. The script will automatically scan the 25 tickers defined in the settings based on the current chart's resolution.
Key features include:
- Multi-Ticker Monitoring: Track price action for 25 symbols (customizable in inputs) at once.
- Visual Tables: Two tables appear on the chart—one for Pivot Highs and one for Pivot Lows—showing the ticker, current close, and the identified pivot price.
- Consolidated Alerts: Instead of separate alerts for every symbol, the script generates a summary alert string containing all detected pivots for the current bar.
- On-Chart Labels: High and low pivot points are labeled directly on the main chart for the active symbol.
Details
The indicator utilizes the ta.pivothigh() and ta.pivotlow() functions to detect price structural points where a bar is higher or lower than its neighbors within a specific lookback and lookforward window (Left and Right lengths). It uses request.security() to fetch data for the 25 user-defined symbols. The alert system is optimized to concatenate results, ensuring that if multiple symbols hit a pivot point on the same bar, you receive a single, organized notification.

FAQ
How do I change the timeframe for the scan?
