Auto Pivot MT4 Indicator – Trading Rules

It is commonly known that pivot points represent support and resistance levels. Therefore, traders prefer to wait for price to trade near one of the support or resistance levels before entering a position. Prices often tend to move back to the Pivot point and when there is a good trend established, prices often dip or rally to one of the support or resistance levels before resuming the trends.

Pivot points can be combined with other trading indicators such as moving averages or oscillators and can also be used with candlestick price action techniques for trading. Traders should bear in mind that the Auto Pivot MT4 Indicator calculates the pivot point levels as a ‘Classic’ basis. Other pivot point calculations include Fibonacci based Pivot points and ATR based pivot points. There is not much of difference in the way the pivot levels are calculated as they often tend to represent a support or resistance price zone.

Entry Rule
Long when price pull back to support level
Short when price is approaching resistance level

Exit Rule
Exit long position when price approach next resistance level
Exit short position when price approach next support level

Stop Loss
For long position, place stop loss below supporting pivot level.
For short position, place stop loss slightly above resistance level.

Time Frames
Technically speaking, you can use the Auto Pivot MT4 Indicator for all time frames. However, the shorter the time frame, you will see more fluctuation and possibly more whipsaw which may cause small losses that can eat up your portfolio quickly. We recommend that you use higher time frames like the 4H for better consistency.

The Auto Pivot MT4 Indicator is definitely a very handy tool for traders based on the simplicity involved in loading up this indicator quickly.

Auto Pivot MT4 Indicator – Further Explanation

Pivot points are nothing but price levels derived from the previous timeframe. Pivot points can be configured to display daily pivot levels, which is calculated based on the previous day’s prices. Weekly pivot levels are plotted based on the previous week’s prices, while monthly pivot points are based on the previous month’s price levels.

The pivot points comprise of three support levels and three resistance levels with a mid point known as the pivot point. In some cases, there can be as much as five support and resistance levels, but it is very rare that price action turns bullish to reach either of these pivot levels.

Pivot points are calculated as follows:

Pivot (or Mid point) = (H+L+C)/3

R1 = 2x PP-L

R2 = PP + Range

R3 = PP + Range x2

S1 = 2xPP-H

S2 = PP – Range

S3 = PP – Range x2

Instead of calculating these levels manually, the Auto Pivot MT4 Indicator is created to help traders to automatically draw the levels of interest without having to do the calculations manually.
