    Pivot Point Calculator

    Calculate pivot points to identify potential support and resistance levels.

    How to use it

    1. Enter the previous day’s high, low and close for XAU/USD.
    2. Choose a method.
    3. Read the pivot (P) with resistance R1 to R3 above it and support S1 to S3 below it.

    The formula

    Standard: P = (H + L + C) ÷ 3, R1 = 2P − L, S1 = 2P − H, R2 = P + (H − L), S2 = P − (H − L)

    Fibonacci: P as Standard, levels at P ± 0.382, 0.618 and 1.000 × (H − L)

    Woodie: P = (H + L + 2C) ÷ 4, then the Standard levels

    Camarilla: levels at C ± (H − L) × 1.1 ÷ 12, ÷ 6 and ÷ 4

    Worked example

    Yesterday’s high 4,180, low 4,140, close 4,170.

    Standard pivot: (4,180 + 4,140 + 4,170) ÷ 3 = 4,163.33.

    R1 = 2 × 4,163.33 − 4,140 = 4,186.67. S1 = 2 × 4,163.33 − 4,180 = 4,146.67.

    Good to know

    • Gold trades nearly 24 hours, so the "previous day" depends on where your platform closes its daily candle. Use the same daily close your chart uses.
    • Pivots are reference levels, not signals. They are most useful where they line up with levels the chart already shows.
