pLowBar (series int): represents number of bar back the pivot Low occurred.
pHigh (series float): Pivot High Price
pLow (series float): Pivot Low Price
indicators (Indicator[]): Array of Indicators - allows to add multiple
Pivot
Pivot refers to zigzag pivot. Each pivot can contain various data
Fields:
point (chart.point): pivot point coordinates
dir (series int): direction of the pivot. Valid values are 1, -1, 2, -2
level (series int): is used for multi level zigzags. For single level, it will always be 0
