Calculation Formulas

Classic Pivot Points

P = (High + Low + Close) / 3
R1 = (2 × P) - Low
R2 = P + (High - Low)
R3 = High + 2 × (P - Low)
S1 = (2 × P) - High
S2 = P - (High - Low)
S3 = Low - 2 × (High - P)

Understanding Pivot Points

What are Pivot Points?

Pivot points are price levels calculated from the previous period's high, low, and close. They help identify potential support and resistance levels for the current trading session.

How to Use Them?

Use pivot points to identify entry and exit points. Price above PP suggests bullish momentum, while price below PP suggests bearish momentum. Support/resistance levels act as targets or stops.

Which Method to Choose?

Classic pivots are most popular. Fibonacci uses golden ratios. Camarilla is best for intraday trading. Woodie emphasizes recent price action. DeMark is conditional based on open/close relationship.

Best Timeframes

Daily pivots are recalculated each day and work well for day trading. Weekly/monthly pivots are used for swing trading and longer-term position trading.
