Help with Pivot Points

What is the proper way to calculate Pivot Points. I normally take my OHLC at 17:00 est or 21gmt from the daily chart. I then use my PP, R1 S1 for any time frame I select. In my search I have found where the PP, R1, S1 differ dramatically because of different OHLC inputs, some are using the 5min, 1hr, charts. Any feedback would be helpful.
Thanks

I think you may be asking what HLC inputs to use for the time frame you plan on trading. I trade USD/JPY during Asian session with 15m chart. I use the daily HLC 17:00est to 17:00est to determine my pivots. If you trade the Daily you would want to use the weekly HLC for your calculations. Hope this helps.

ps) not another debate.... i just can't waste my energy on them anymore. in the end, if you die believing EAs suck, it hasn't effected the chinese man that made a million on the other side of the planet with one.

Daily pivot point indicator should be attached.

(just like every other indicator, this one will work for some people, and not others. apply it with your own discretion.)

Trade well.
