How to Use Pivot Points

Standard Pivot Point is the most widely used — calculated from the previous session's High, Low, and Close.

Pivot (P) = (High + Low + Close) ÷ 3 R1 = (2 × P) − Low S1 = (2 × P) − High R2 = P + (High − Low) S2 = P − (High − Low) R3 = High + 2×(P − Low) S3 = Low − 2×(High − P)

Trading rules: Price above Pivot = bullish bias, look for buys at S1/S2. Price below Pivot = bearish bias, look for sells at R1/R2. R3/S3 are extreme levels — rarely reached but very significant when they are.

About This Calculator

The Pivot Point Calculator generates key support and resistance levels for NSE intraday and swing trading based on the previous session's High, Low, and Close prices. Pivot points are one of the most widely used technical analysis tools among professional NSE traders — they provide objective, mathematically derived levels where price is likely to find support or resistance during the next trading session. On NSE, pivot points are used extensively for NIFTY 50 and BANK NIFTY intraday trading. When NIFTY opens above its daily pivot, the bias is bullish and traders look for buying opportunities near S1 and S2. When it opens below the pivot, the bias is bearish and resistance is expected at R1 and R2. Pivot levels also work as profit targets — many intraday traders exit positions when price reaches the next pivot level. The calculator supports four pivot point methods: Standard (most widely used), Camarilla (preferred for mean reversion setups), Woodie's (gives more weight to closing price), and Fibonacci (uses Fibonacci ratios for support/resistance distances).

Formula
Standard Pivot: PP = (High + Low + Close) ÷ 3 R1 = (2 × PP) − Low S1 = (2 × PP) − High R2 = PP + (High − Low) S2 = PP − (High − Low) R3 = High + 2(PP − Low) S3 = Low − 2(High − PP) Camarilla: R/S levels = Close ± (High − Low) × multiplier Woodie: PP = (High + Low + 2 × Open) ÷ 4 Fibonacci: Levels at 38.2%, 61.8%, 100% of range from PP
Worked Example
NIFTY 50 previous session: High = 23,648, Low = 23,412, Close = 23,527 Standard Pivot = (23,648 + 23,412 + 23,527) ÷ 3 = 23,529 R1 = (2 × 23,529) − 23,412 = 23,646 R2 = 23,529 + (23,648 − 23,412) = 23,765 R3 = 23,648 + 2(23,529 − 23,412) = 23,882 S1 = (2 × 23,529) − 23,648 = 23,410 S2 = 23,529 − (23,648 − 23,412) = 23,293 S3 = 23,412 − 2(23,648 − 23,529) = 23,174
