Hi everyone,
I've created an indicator that calculates pivot points, support and resistance levels for the next trading day (Extended Pivot Points).
There's a useful 2min video on investopedia explaining the basic principles of the indicator:
http://www.investopedia.com/video/play/pivot-points/
I wanted to share a complete indicator but I'm unfortunately receiving the following error message on most of my algorithms:
"Backtest Error: Could not find the algorithm DLL in upload files. If uploadinga custom DLL please ensure it inherits class QCAlgorithm to match the interface."
Haven't been QC-ing for a week now so perhaps there has been an update to the source code that require some changes to my codes?
Would appreciate some community advise on this :)
All the best
/Chris

I'd be interested to see a backtest how SPY (or any other main ETF) performs using the monthly &/or weekly S1 as a buy signal and R1 as a sell signal. The pivot points are a classic technique used by traders for a long time! I'd write the script myself if I knew more about coding - baby steps...
