MTF Fibonacci Pivot
Apr 27, 2018

The MTF Fibonacci Pivot indicator plots multi-timeframe Fibonacci pivot points on the chart to identify potential support and resistance levels across various trading horizons.
Usage
The MTF Fibonacci Pivot can be used to identify key price levels where reversals or breakouts are likely to occur. By displaying pivots from multiple timeframes simultaneously, traders can spot "confluence zones" where different timeframe levels align, often indicating stronger support or resistance.
Example applications include:
- Day Trading: Using 1-hour and 4-hour pivots to find intraday targets or entry points.
- Swing Trading: Monitoring Daily and Weekly pivots to understand the broader market structure.
- Breakout Alerts: The indicator includes built-in alerts that trigger when the price crosses daily or 4-hour resistance and support levels.
Details
This tool calculates pivot points using the standard (High + Low + Close) / 3 formula based on the previous period's data. Resistance and Support levels are then derived using specific Fibonacci ratios:
- Pivot: (H + L + C) / 3
- R1/S1: Pivot ± (Range * 0.5)
- R2/S2: Pivot ± (Range * 0.618)
- R3/S3: Pivot ± (Range * 1.0)
- R4/S4: Pivot ± (Range * 1.382)
The indicator utilizes request.security with lookahead = barmerge.lookahead_on to ensure levels are plotted correctly from the start of each period based on historical data.
