Rolling Traditional Pivot Points [QuantNomad]

Aug 11, 2020

Standard Traditional Pivot Points are calculated from the previous day (or another period) close/low/high. But what is the day close for cryptocurrencies trading 24/7 on exchange? Does it make sense to use a specific time price as a close if it continue trading after that?

So I decided to solve that issue with Rolling Traditional Pivot Points where I calculate pivot points not at the end of the period but for every bar. Every time recalculating pivot points I look at a window of period length in bars and base my calculations on these bars. This way you get smooth pivot points changing with every bar and it seems like levels might be really nice support and resistance for the price.

I implemented 6 periods: Auto, Day, Week, Month, Quarter, Year. For the Auto period, I select the most suitable period for the timeframe of your chart.

On the chart, you can see by default up to 11 levels plotted

PP – Pivot Point
S1, S2, S3, S4, S5 - Support Levels
R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 - Resistance Levels
