  1. Two quick links that should get you started with copious amounts of info on Camarilla are: Camarilla Equation - Free! Day Trading Online to Financial Freedom with the SureFireThing Camarilla Equation
  2. Hi, I've been developing my own pivots indicator for sofware I use which doesnt have the feature built-in and was wondering about the preferred approach used to calculate weekly pivots. Is the week defined literally, i.e. between Monday and the immediate next Friday or is it regarded as a 5 trading day lookback from a known most recent Friday. My question relates to how should I handle non-trading days in the week (e.g. public holidays) - say a week has 1 non-trading day, so now is the pivot calc based on 4 days or does it stick with a 5 day lookback (i.e. assume every 5 daily bars make up a week). If there are 2 holidays in one week is the pivot then based on 3 days and so on? Once I've gotten that right, I'd tackle intraday, so just quickly on that one would I assume for most commodities 24 hourly bars = 1 day and base my next day pivot on that? e.g. what is the procedure in calculation if a commodity market is closed for part of those 24 hours, is it the last 24 hours = 1 day or do I just use the last 24 bars (assuming of course one's data has no gap errors and its real market data) Thanks for any explanation. Cheers
