The maths
Pivot = (high + low + close) / 3 R1 = 2 x pivot - low S1 = 2 x pivot - high R2 = pivot + (high - low) S2 = pivot - (high - low)
That is the classic method. Fibonacci spaces the levels at 38.2%, 61.8% and 100% of the range instead, and Camarilla pulls them in tight around the close for range days.
Worked example
A session that ran 1.0900 high, 1.0820 low and closed at 1.0870 gives a pivot at 1.0863, first resistance at 1.0907 and first support at 1.0827.
Which prices should I put in?
The previous completed session. Daily pivots take yesterday's high, low and close. Weekly pivots take last week's, and they hold for the week.
Which method should I use?
Classic is the default and the one most desks have on the chart. Camarilla sits closer to the close and suits a range. Fibonacci falls between the two.
Do pivot points work?
They are watched, which is most of why they matter. A level a lot of people are looking at attracts orders. Nothing in the arithmetic predicts anything by itself.
