Price Pivots

Price pivots are best conceptualized with three bars. A three-bar pivot low represents support and is formed when buying pressure turns price from down to up. It is designated by a price bar with a higher low that closes above the previous bar's high, where the previous bar's low is lower than the bar that preceded it. This is true in every time frame.

In the above image, the low on 13-07-2010 is Pivot Low.


Same concept applies to Pivot High.

Todays Bearish Signals:
1.Again found resistance at the tweezer-top formed.

NIFTY had a green day today and more buyers joined in. Last 3-4 days has been in a realy tight range. On the downside, it is finding support at the support level and supply reduces there. On the upside, the tweezer top is acting as resistance. We should see a break from here on either side.

What is going to happen next? Let's wait and watch.

NIFTY EOD Analysis as on 15th July 2010

 Today, also the twezeer top acted as a resistance. Yesterday's candle looks a bit like shooting star in an uptrend. Now, we need to close below the support level at 5360 level for reversal.

Todays Bearish Signals:
1. Lower high and lower low candle after yesterday's shooting star like candle.

Now, the supply is reducing as NIFTY is approaching the support level. After yesterday's shooting star like candle, bears should have jumped in the wagon, but today the bearish interest was less and it couldn't break the support level. Anyways, we need to be cautious and see whether bears can support the formation of spinning top candle with another bearish confirmation and also break the support level. Otherwise, we are going to see higher levels now.

Questions
Can bears break below the support level? Let's wait and watch.
