The first thing you\u2019re going to learn is how to calculate pivot point levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pivot point and associated support and resistance levels are calculated by using the last trading session\u2019s open, high, low, and close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since forex is a 24-hour market, most forex traders use the New York closing time of 5:00 pm EST as the previous day\u2019s close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pivot Point Calculation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The calculation for a pivot point is shown below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pivot point (PP)<\/strong> = (High + Low + Close) \/ 3<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Support and resistance levels are then calculated off the pivot point like so:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First level support and resistance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First resistance (R1)<\/strong> = (2 x PP) \u2013 Low<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First support (S1)<\/strong> = (2 x PP) \u2013 High<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Second level of support and resistance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Second resistance (R2)<\/strong> = PP + (High \u2013 Low)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Second support (S2)<\/strong> = PP \u2013 (High \u2013 Low)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Third level of support and resistance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Third resistance (R3) <\/strong>= High + 2(PP \u2013 Low)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Third support (S3)<\/strong> = Low \u2013 2(High \u2013 PP)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep in mind that some forex charting software plots intermediate levels or mid-point levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are basically mini levels<\/em> between the main pivot point and support and resistance levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you hated algebra, have no fear because you don\u2019t have to perform these calculations yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most charting software will automatically do this for you. Just make sure you configure your settings so that it uses the correct closing time and price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We here at BabyPips.com also have our very own Pivot Point Calculator!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The forex pivot point calculator can come in handy, especially if you want to do a little backtesting to see how pivot point levels have held up in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember, one of the advantages of using pivot points is that it is objective, so it\u2019s very easy to test how prices react to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
