Pivot Point Calculator

Get the day's pivot and its support and resistance levels from the previous session's high, low and close — in Classic, Fibonacci or Camarilla style.

Pivot levels
R31.11500
R21.11000
R11.10500
Pivot (PP)1.10000
S11.09500
S21.09000
S31.08500

Use the previous day's (or week's) high, low and close. Pivots are reference levels that many traders watch — they are not predictions.

How it works

All three methods start from the pivot point PP = (High + Low + Close) ÷ 3 and the previous range High − Low.

Classic: R1 = 2·PP − Low, S1 = 2·PP − High, R2/S2 = PP ± range, R3 = High + 2·(PP − Low), S3 = Low − 2·(High − PP).

Fibonacci: levels at PP ± 38.2%, 61.8% and 100% of the range.

Camarilla: four levels each side of the close, at close ± range × 1.1 ÷ 12, 1.1 ÷ 6, 1.1 ÷ 4 and 1.1 ÷ 2.

Pivots are simply reference levels that many traders watch; price can ignore them. Use them with your own analysis and always with a stop-loss.

Frequently asked questions

Which timeframe should I use for the inputs?
Day traders usually use the previous day’s high, low and close. Swing traders may use the previous week or month.
Which method is best?
None is “best”. Classic is the most widely used, Fibonacci spaces levels by ratios, and Camarilla gives tighter levels around the close that some traders use for range trading.
For forex, which close should I use?
Use the close of your broker’s daily candle (commonly 5 pm New York). Different brokers can differ slightly.
Do pivot levels guarantee a reversal?
No. They are reference points, not predictions or signals.
