Application of Pivot Points

Of the several variations in pivot calculation, the most commonly used is a 5 point system consisting of:

Pivot Point, Support 1, Resistance 1, Support 2, Resistance 2, Support 3, Resistance 3.

KEY:
S = support, R = resistance, P = pivot point, H = high, L = low, C = close.

Traditionally, stock traders use a 24-hour cycle of high, low and close.
Due to volatility in futures/forex markets, shorter time intervals often apply.
