Pivots for today from 5pm
Hello AK4X. I've always wondered but don't think I've asked. What is the difference on your chart between "Central" and "PP"? If this has already been answered a long time ago, please excuse me - BUT TELL ME ANYWAY.

Thanks.

Sure looks like it, doesn't it? Add to that, EU is only down 10% for the year, while GU and AU are both off 25%. All the more reason to short.

central is the price at the close of the day.
pivot point is the average calculated pivot.

You're already pre-excused on a permanent basis there shortbus..

Sorry... Central pivot or CP is simply the opening price at 5pm.

When the range between the CP and the Daily Pivot ((either DP or PP)) or any of the other usual pivots is great enough, it often works just like a regular pivot, especially in relatively slow ranging action like recently.

The greater the range, the greater the effect. When price opens right at or very near to any of the other plotted pivots, it is irrelevant and redundant. I don't worry about it at that point. It can be a little ambiguous at times but price will tell you what it's respecting very quickly.

When used in combination with the QP's or Quarter Points, you''ll have another tool to play this ranging action with... especialy what used to be the "typical" asian session.

ADD: Tonite on EU, the Central is essentially the same as the QP for that zone. I will look for it to exert ALOT of influence on PA as long as price remains in this zone between the DP and M3.

if we don't hit the pivot before, I'll short at 1.3045 to the pivot.
stop 25 pips
chances to hit pivot are very good... it's 1.3000 round number.

Thanks for that explanation, as always. So, I'm kind of preparing for the effects of the "central" when I draw fibs from daily open to yesterday's high, and from daily open to yesterday's low, right?

Add: That said, am I wrong in assuming that not many fibs have been respected over the past few days? For example, I usually plot yesterday, 3-day, this week, last week, last month, but they really haven't helped lately. Am I wasting my time with these or is do you think this time period is just an anomaly?

no you are not wasting your time... Fibs are very important.. I use them all the time.
when that happens to you it indicates that price is going to the other direction... you are looking for fibs retracements where price is retracing fibs of a much higher timeframe (weekly for example)
Fibs from previous day range are very important for intraday. I update it if we make new highs or lows so they will become a fib from yesterday low to today's high. or yesterday high to today's low.

OK, thanks again. I also draw fibs for the latest trace, so to speak. The most recent high to the most recent low intra-day.
