Pivot Points High Low Multi Time Frame

Hello All,

There are built-in and published Pivot Point High Low indicators in Public Library but as far as I see none of them is for Higher Time frames. so I decided to write & publish this script. I hope it would be useful while trading or developing your own scripts. I also did this to use in one of my future projects (we will see it in a few weeks/months ;)).

I tried to make all settings optional, so you can play with them as you wish.

P.S. There is no control mechanism if the chart time frame is lower than the time frame in the options. So you better set higher time frame in the options than the chart time frame.

Enjoy!
