What is a Pivot Strategy?

  • A pivot strategy involves using pivot points to determine potential price levels in the Forex market.
  • These pivot points serve as vital indicators of trend reversals and areas of support and resistance.
  • Traders can calculate these points using the previous period's high, low, and closing prices.
  • πŸŒ€

    Calculating Pivot Points

  • The formula for calculating the main pivot point (PP) is:
  • PP = (High + Low + Close) / 3
  • Support and resistance levels are derived from this pivot point:
    • First resistance (R1) = (2 x PP) – Low
    • First support (S1) = (2 x PP) – High
    • Additional levels can be calculated for more detailed trading strategies.

    How to Use Pivot Points in Forex Trading

  • Traders commonly use pivot points in conjunction with other indicators for validation.
  • Basic guidelines include:
    • Price above pivot point suggests a bullish bias.
    • Price below pivot point suggests a bearish bias.
    • Longer period pivots (weekly/monthly) tend to be more reliable.
