Hello Saint,
Now my question:
Pivot highs are broken in two ways.
Case 1: by making a previous higher pivot low.
Case 2: by making a previous double bottom or a lower pivot low.
Therefore, do I enter at the break of a pivot high irrespective of the above two cases?
My argument really is, Case 1 sounds more solid but then again we want to cathc trends. So there is chance that due to addition of such a filter we might lose out on few such trends. As a result we might be in a situation where we'll end up with a comparatively longer streak of losses.
Please comment.

If we get a higher pivot low and then a break above previous pivot highs,much yummier..........But either way,we are waiting for that pivot high to crack before entry.....even if we get a lower pivot low and then a blast off move above previous pivot highs.
There is,basically,no change in that downtrend till that previous pivot high is taken out.
So,as far as pivot method is concerned,we wait till pivot highs are taken out........but do have a look whether a breakout from a falling wedge or a descending triangle failure gets you into the trade even before pivots crack.
