It helps traders identify emerging trends, momentum shifts, and key support or resistance levels by plotting statistical calculations directly onto price charts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why is my indicator not showing? A: Verify the file is in the MQL/Indicators folder, or try right-clicking the "Indicators" tree in the Navigator and clicking "Refresh."
Q: Do custom indicators slow down the platform? A: Too many complex indicators can impact performance; remove unused ones via the "Indicator List" (Ctrl+I).

Description & Settings
I used to use the Standard Pivot Points calculations for a long time. But I was never satisfied with them because the pivot lines were too far apart to be useful to me.
Somehow I found a different set of Calculations for Pivot Points. They are called Camarilla Level Pivot Points.
There is only 1 calculation that I think is wrong. That is the calculation of PP (Pivot Point). The calculation is the one used in calculating the Standard Pivot Point.
Instead I will use: PP = (R1 + S1) / 2 because it places the pivot in the center of the other pivot points.
Concerns: I've been working on this program for a few days not and I still have a couple of concerns.
The first is that the last Indicator_color does not show up in the Indicator's property colors list.
The second is that the lines do not extend to the last couple of Price Bars.
Also I want to hear any comments you have on the code.
