CPR - Central Pivot Range Trading Concept Education

Nifty 50 IndexNSE

Description

The Central Pivot Range (CPR) is absolutely, without a doubt, the most powerful part of the Floor Pivots indicator.

It has three lines, Upper line is called "TC", lower line is called "BC" and the Middle line is the "PP-Pivot Point"

Formula to Calculate CPR :

TC = (Pivot - BC) + Pivot
Pivot = (High + Low + Close)!3
BC = (High + Low)/2


At any given time, the range can be support or resistance, it can forecast trending or sideways price behavior, dictate the day's direction, or serve as an integral part of a trend.

By seeing the gap/width between TC & BC we will be able to know how the session is going to be i.e "Trending / Sideways". If the Gap is very Narrow we can expect Trending market either side. If the Gap is wide that particular session will Volatile / Rangebound market.

There are 7 CPR - Two day relationship concepts available which will indicate you the next day trend direction. (Comparing the Current session CPR with Previous Session CPR where the three lines are formed and its relationship.)

Higher Value = Bullish
Overlapping Higher Value = Moderately Bullish
Lower Value = Bearish
Overlapping Lower Value = Moderately Bearish
Unchanged value = Sideways / Breakout
Outside Value = Sideways

In an overlapping higher value relationship, if the market had closed the prior day below its range, what can be the possible bias for the next day?

@sangeeth13231, trend reversal towards bearish
imsagu
does trading view plot the CPR through any inbuilt indicator or do we have to calculate it ourselves?
ViVenTraders
@imsagu, You can search in indicator, there are plenty of indicators available for CPR levels. it is not necessary to calculate manually.

@mrajamohan, If you see in the chart, current day CPR (2nd Aug) is Higher than the previous day CPR (1st Aug) - which is the Trend is still in BULLISH and we have to look for BUY entry.
Also compare the CPR of 25th July and 26th July in which 26th CPR is formed lower value CPR indicates the BEARISH trend. Check out the link in signature tab for more details about other concepts.
