Pivot Points

Pivot Points Indicator

The Pivot Points indicator highlights areas on the chart where candles close in opposite colors. These points occur when the price shifts from bullish to bearish, or vice versa, indicating potential reversals or continuation patterns. These points are more easily seen on a line chart and represent areas where the price changes direction to create peak formations.

Foundational Concepts

Before diving into the indicator, it’s important to understand a few key concepts:

When price is trending upward, it creates higher highs and higher lows. Each high or low acts as a pivot point. In an uptrend, the price is more likely to break the previous high (pivot point) and continue higher. You can enter a buy trade when the price breaks the previous high, anticipating the continuation of the trend.

When price is trending downward, it creates lower lows and lower highs. Each high or low is also a pivot point. In a downtrend, the price is more likely to break the previous low (pivot point) and continue lower. You can enter a sell trade when the price breaks the previous low, anticipating the continuation of the trend.

For reversal trades, it’s helpful to be familiar with chart patterns like double tops, double bottoms, and head and shoulders. The Pivot Points indicator can assist in identifying these patterns, helping you determine entry points, as well as where to place your stop loss.

Recommended Setup

It’s recommended to have two charts open side by side: one displaying a line chart and the other showing a candlestick chart, with the Pivot Points indicator applied to both. This setup allows you to easily identify the market structure and price action as it approaches these levels. You can also add a 20-period Simple Moving Average (SMA) to both charts to help identify the overall trend. Additionally, consider adding the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to the line chart to confirm overbought or oversold conditions.

This approach can be used on​ any timeframe.
