Hi,
 
I was wondering how the pivot point is defined in your afl. 
I tried to guess it and have tried to locate it with plotshape function of 
AB. 
I was trying to define a buy criteria that buys when the price exceeds the 
pivot point value. 
What can you suggest.
 
Greg
 
P.S     Nice job of programming into AB
