Pivot Point Clarification

Re: Pivot Point Clarification

Hi Jay,

Youre correct. Just make sure you use the correct high, low, and close. All instruments have different trading hours.

Re: Pivot Point Clarification

Hi traderix,

Im not a currency trade but our member feb2865 in our forum is a season Forex trader. He held a chat seminar a few days back and I was informed he used the time: 6:00pm to 5:00pm next day to plot the high/low.

This applies to both the EUR/USD and the GBP/USD. Hope this helps.
