Indicator Description
The Daily Camarilla Pivot Point is yesterday’s close. The input for the camarilla support / resistance formulas is based on the previous session’s high, low, and close. The Daily Camarilla Pivot Point levels are then calculated as follows:
- Range = High – Low, for the prior day
- R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 – Resistance levels
- S1, S2, S3, S4, S5 – Support levels
- R5 = (High / Low) * Close
- R4 = Close + Range * (1.1)/2
- R3 = Close + Range * (1.1)/4
- R2 = Close + Range * (1.1)/6
- R1 = Close + Range * (1.1)/12
- S1 = Close – Range * (1.1)/12
- S2 = Close – Range * (1.1)/6
- S3 = Close – Range * (1.1)/4
- S4 = Close – Range * (1.1)/2
- S5 = (Close – (R5 – Close))
The resulting levels above and below the Daily Camarilla Pivot Point, establishes areas of support and resistance.
To conclude, the Daily Camarilla Pivot Points are simple and versatile support / resistance levels. They can be used in both sideways and trending markets for reversal and breakouts setups. Specifically, the S3 and R3 levels can be used to initiate reversal trades, whereas the S4 and R4 levels signal breakout scenarios.
The idea is to wait for the prices to interact with the Camarilla Pivot levels, prior to considering setups. Furthermore, these support / resistance levels may also be combined with other tools for technical analysis, i.e. trend filters and/or momentum oscillators.
