Hey Kris,

I concur with Greg. Sadly, the only *really* active forum here is the one describing nefarious insects in Nirvana code and the Onmilanguage development and discussion forums are sorely neglected by most. Clog away to your hearts content :-)

I've been bashing my head round these infernal pivots when time allows for weeks now - and the pivot calcs are the elementary part! - where I'm having real trouble is making OL comprehend and work around data gaps, non-trading days, etc. I have such an agglomeration of nested IF's in my trial code its scary, so am in the process of trying to simplify the logic. I too havent found a solid work around for timezones so am resigning myself to using the data feed's timezone (for now, just to get it working - then will complicate and hopefully not break it later)

I am cursing OL's bar by bar implementation every day. If Nirvana could just expose the entire price array to manipulate and get into the sequence I want so I can then send it to the plot function or for use by a system I would be like a lean hog in manure. Please *do* something here Nirvana, bar-by-bar really cripples development!

In my own coding the one glitch I havent resolved - is on a weekly indicator based on the # of trading days in the week - I only know on Monday's close if Friday was a non-trading day and by then Friday's bar is past and I cannot change any variable calc on Friday's bar on the Monday so am playing with ideas of plotting things 1 day delayed but I'm not happy with that so am still scratching me noggin cells.

If I ever do come up with something that improves on the pivot status quo I'll post, I'm hopeful the day is getting closer ...

Cheers
