Overview

Camarilla pivot point calculations are rather straightforward. We need to input the previous day’s open, high, low and close. The formulas for each resistance and support level are:

R4 = Closing + ((High -Low) x 1.5000) R3 = Closing + ((High -Low) x 1.2500) R2 = Closing + ((High -Low) x 1.1666) R1 = Closing + ((High -Low x 1.0833) PP = (High + Low + Closing) / 3 S1 = Closing – ((High -Low) x 1.0833) S2 = Closing – ((High -Low) x 1.1666) S3 = Closing – ((High -Low) x 1.2500) S4 = Closing – ((High-Low) x 1.5000)

R5 = R4 + 1.168 * (R4 – R3) R6 = (High/Low) * Close S5 = S4 – 1.168 * (S3 – S4) S6 = Close – (R6 – Close)

The calculation for further resistance and support levels varies from this norm. These levels can come into play during strong trend moves, so it’s important to understand how to identify them. For example, R5, R6, S5 and S6 are calculated as follows:
