The Mali Pivots indicator is a tool that is able to highlight support and resistance levels in relation to the 9,10,11,12,13 and extended counts of the trending price action. While numerous traders trade these counts, this tool is unique in that it continues counting past these base levels and will mark extended runs coming to an end with a vertical Red or Green Column.

The indicator identifies levels based on both 9,10,11,12,13 and extended counts, but splits them into both Support and Resistance levels and marks each level with a horizontal pivot. The level being Support/Resistance can be determined by the colors of the pivot. In addition, this tool Note that these styles of pivots and colors can be edited in the tool settings.

This calculation is based on the value of the current close compared to the close that happened 4 candles back.

Condition: MaliCount:= close > close\[4]

When this condition is true for 9,10,11,12 or 13 consecutive closes in a row, the indicator will mark the candle with the current number count as well as drawing a horizontal pivot to indicate the importance of the price level.
