Hello Ladies and Gentleman,

for the calculation of pivot Points it is necessary to set the right timezone. But how to set the timezone in the sdk? Does e.g. the Pivot Indicator use the default system timezone?

TimeZone.setDefault(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));

But this doesn't give the same results for pivot as the standard JForex Plattform. Any Ideas?


Best Regards,

You should use a custom period - Period.createCustomPeriod(Unit unit, int unitsCount, JFTimeZone jfTimeZone);

E.g. when calculating an indicator (pivot) for Daily candles with CST time zone, at first create a period:
Period period = Period.createCustomPeriod(Unit.Day, 1, JFTimeZone.CST);
now give the created period to some of the pivot methods, e.g.:
context.getIndicators().pivot2(Instrument.EURUSD, period, OfferSide.ASK, 5);
