How to use the PP calculator?

1) Enter the previous DAY period High, Low and Close prices for the currency pair you want to calculate the pivot and the 2 support/resistance levels. Note that the previous day ends at 5PM NY time.

2)  Press the 'Calculate Pivot Point' button.

Formulas Used in this Pivot Calculator:

Pivot = ( High + Close + Low ) / 3  
   
Resistance1 = 2 * Pivot - Low normal trading range
Support1 = 2 * Pivot - High for the next period
   
Resistance2 = Pivot + (Resistance1 - Support1) extreme trading range
Support2 = Pivot - (Resistance1 - Support1)  
   
Resistance3 = High + 2*(Pivot - Low)  
Support3 = Low - 2*(High - Pivot)  

Using Pivot Points

When calculating pivot points, the pivot point itself is the primary support/resistance. This means that the largest price movement is expected to occur at this price. The other support(S1-S3) and resistance levels(R1-R3) are less influential, but may still generate significant price movements.
