Some of you said the .ela code did not come through so here it is again.
There are two sets of pivots.  One for the Support and one for the
Resistance lines.  That way you can toggle the sets on/off independantly to
save screen space.  Some traders find that the classical pivot of
yesterday's (H+L+C)/3 to not work as well as using yesterday's close or
today's open.  The attached pivot code references the pivots to the standard
calculation here.  However, you could easily use another Keyline such as
this for display purposes.
Inputs: OC(CloseD(1));
Plot1(OC,"Keyline");

Or if you wanted to use the current day's open then change the input to
OC(OpenD(0)).  Often times the classical pivots will hold for the buy
support or sell resistance but the keyline is quite likely to head for
yesterday's close or the current day's open.

Cheers,
