How are Pivots Calculated?

Daily pivots are calculated by the average of the highest, the lowest and the closing price of the previous day. Weekly (Monthly) Pivots are the average of the previous week (month) high, low and closing prices.

Supports and Resistances are calculated by the width between pivot points and the high and low prices of the previous day/week/month.

 

How to use Pivots Indicator?

Traders can use this indicator alongside with other trend following indicators to predict possible reversions or breakouts. The indicator is very useful in predicting the direction of the trend taking into account its recent trading range average. If a market trades above the pivot point, it signals a bullish sentiment, while trading below the pivot point is a bearish signal.

 

Resistances or Supports can also be used to place stop loss orders or enter positions. For instance, a trader can put a stop loss under the first support (S1) of the daily pivot to get out of his position if the trend fails to reverse when reaching its first support level. On the other hand, if a trend successively breaks its resistance points, that marks a bullish sentiment and the trader can open a long position.
