This article presents an MQL5 indicator that uses graphical objects instead of indicator buffers to calculate and display classic daily pivot points. The levels P plus R1–R3 and S1–S3 are calculated strictly from the previous day's High/Low/Close values, while each trading session is independently managed through object creation, deletion, and updating. The implementation retrieves D1 data, draws historical pivot sessions on the chart, refreshes levels when a new daily bar begins, and extends
