  • This indicator will display simultaneously pivot point levels and the percentage of ATR has been achieved by currency pairs you choose. As you know that the pivot points can be used to identify levels of support and resistance. Coupled with reached ATR percentage can increase the likelihood of a change of price movements, breakout or continuation.

    There are two types of pivot points that are used in this indicator, Standard and Fibonacci. Most traders know how its calculated, but I'll show it anyway.

    Pivot Point Calculation

    Standard Pivot Point:
    R3 = H + 2(PP – L)
    R2 = PP + (H – L)
    R1 = (2 x PP) – L
    PP = (H + L + C) / 3
    S1 = (2 x PP) – H
    S2 = PP – (H – L)
    S3 = Low – 2(H – PP)

    Fibonacci Pivot Point:
    PP = (H + L + C) / 3
    R3 = PP + ((H – L) x 1.000)
    R2 = PP + ((H – L) x .618)
    R1 = PP + ((H – L) x .382)
    S1 = PP – ((H – L) x .382)
    S2 = PP – ((H – L) x .618)
    S3 = PP – ((H – L) x 1.000)

    Abbr:
    C – Closing Price
    H – High
    L – Low
    PP – Pivot Point
    S1 – First Support
    S2 – Second Support
    S3 – Third Support
    R1 – First Resistance
    R2 – Second Resistance
    R3 – Third Resistance

    Appearance:



    Let's see what information we can get from the picture above. Visually we can see that the USDJPY on the weekly time frame has the following data:

    • Opening price is between PP and R1
    • The highest price this week is between R2 and R3
    • Lowest price this week is between PP and R1
    • Current price this week is between R1 and R2
    • ATR 4 weekly has been reached.
    Try to use symbol sets of EUR pairs (EURAUD, EURCAD, EURCHF, EURGBP, EURJPY, EURNZD, EURUSD). You can see the pair is being led or everything just like being locked up between R1 and S1, as shown below.

    What Next

    In the future I would consider to make this indicator works like a multi-tab browser where we can see various kinds of information such as market profile data, moving averages such as SMA/EMA 200, 20 Days High-Low, etc.

    But for now, this is it, a Pivot Points and ATR Dashboard Indicator.
