The Daily Pivot Point Study sub-paragraph tab shows levels R1-10 and S1-10 available for selection.

The Study correctly displays only levels 1 through 5 on the chart. What is required to show levels 6 through 10?

On mine, it's Settings / Subgraphs, select line, and change Hidden to Dash/Solid like the others.

Thanks.

The sub-paragraph draw style is set, not hidden or ignore, for levels 1 through 10. The Study correctly displays only levels 1 through 5 on the chart. Levels 6 through 10 do not display.

This means they are not calculated for the particular Pivot Points Formula Type being used. None of the formulas would probably exceed five levels.

Modifying the source code, there's a way of doing it like I did in my output graph program. Automating it makes it "set and forget".

Usually the first two support/resistance pivot point lines need to be manually calculated because of their equations. After that they can be looped... at least if the equations aren't custom above/below the second line.

While the support PP line is above the bottom of the visible graph, loop the rest.

While the resistance PP line is below the top of the visible graph, loop the rest.

Safety: Have some minimal value the PP line has to move based on price movement X bars back.

Safety: Have a maximum number of PP lines drawn just in case there's some weird price jump or something else unaccounted for.

For ACSIL auto trading programs, make sure there's at least one PP line drawn above and below the price line even if it isn't visible on the chart.
