Market Synopsis

Floor traders, in particular, have long used a calculated value called the Pivot as a price fulcrum. Support and resistance levels may also be calculated from the Pivot.

This indicator can plot Classic, Traditional, or Camarilla pivots. The resistance and support levels plotted depend on the type of pivots (see table below).

The pivots can be set to calculate and plot Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly (calendar quarter), or Yearly pivots.
