What is ICT GMT Pivots?
ICT GMT Pivots plots pivot-style horizontal lines on the MT4 chart. The display can include pivots, mid-pivots, support lines, Fibonacci lines, and Camarilla lines, and each level can show its price beside it.
The indicator prints no trade arrows. LocalTimeZone sets the local-side time and DestTimeZone adjusts the time zone used as the display reference, so the same levels can be viewed against a chosen clock.
How to use ICT GMT Pivots
Watch whether price turns at a line or clears it and moves on to the next one. Note which lines sit above and below the current price.
- Watch whether price turns at a line or clears it and moves on to the next one.
- During an advance, note which pivots and mid-pivots sit below the current price.
- When price approaches a line above, note whether the candles stall there or pass through it.
- In a strong trend, price often runs straight through a level rather than reacting to it.
- Turn ShowPivots, ShowMidPivots, ShowFibos, and ShowCamarilla on or off to keep only the lines you want, and use ShowLevelPrices with the line-style Inputs to keep labels readable.
Where it helps
Pivots, mid-pivots, Fibonacci lines, and Camarilla lines can each be turned on without drawing them by hand, turning individual groups off leaves only the references you want, and prices printed beside the lines keep each level readable.
