Fibonacci Pivots

Fibonacci Pivots is the definitive clean build of Fibonacci pivots: a level ladder computed once from the prior completed period and held fixed until the next roll. The central pivot is the floor-trader average (H + L + C) / 3; each satellite sits a fixed Fibonacci fraction of the prior high-to-low range above and below it, so spacing expands and contracts with the prior period's travel. Nothing that prints today moves today's levels.

How to Trade the Fibonacci Pivots?

• P as the session lean: trade holding above the pivot is commonly read as bullish, below as bearish; crosses of P fire alerts both ways.
• R1 / S1 (0.382): the first tiers where stalls or reactions tend to appear after a directional open.
• R2 / S2 (0.618): objectives on stronger trending sessions, each with its own cross alert.
• R3 / S3 (1.000): a full prior range from the pivot — reaching one marks an unusually directional session.
• Rotation zone: rotational sessions tend to live inside the shaded R1–S1 band, while trend days take tier after tier in sequence — a built-in day-type read.

Fibonacci Pivots Settings

• Anchor Period (default Daily): the completed prior period supplying the high, low and close, with Weekly and Monthly available. Pick a period a step senior to the chart you trade from.
• Pivot (P), R1 / S1 (0.382), R2 / S2 (0.618), R3 / S3 (1.000) (all default on): the standard ladder's visibility toggles.
• R0 / S0 (0.236) and R4 / S4 (1.382) (both default off): optional inner and outer rungs, drawn faded so the standard set stays prominent.
• R1 - S1 Rotation Zone (default on): shades the band between the first tiers.
• Level Labels (default on) and Line Width (default 1) cover presentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What separates Fibonacci pivots from the classic floor set?

Both share the same central pivot. Classic floor pivots reflect the prior high and low through P, making the ladder asymmetric when the close sat off-center; the Fibonacci set spaces symmetric fractions — 38.2%, 61.8%, 100% — of the prior range instead.

Why do my levels differ from another feed's?

The inputs are the prior period's high, low and close, so anything that changes the period boundary changes the levels. On 24-hour markets, different session templates cut the day at different times and print different pivots from identical trades.

Which anchor period should I use?

Match the holding period: prior-day pivots for intraday execution, prior-week for daily swing charts, prior-month for longer holds. The ladder needs the anchor at or above the chart timeframe — the build warns when it is not.
