TL;DR

Punch has four pivot indicators — Standard Pivots, CPR, Fibonacci Pivots, and Camarilla Pivots — and each is a standalone indicator. Add the ones you want, in any combination, on any chart including options. Levels are calculated automatically from the previous day's open, high, low, and close.

The four pivot indicators on Punch

Standard Pivots

A central Pivot Point (PP) with three resistance levels (R1, R2, R3) and three support levels (S1, S2, S3) — eight horizontal lines in total. Calculated from the previous day's OHLC.

CPR (Central Pivot Range)

Three lines that frame a range around the day's central pivot:

  • TC — Top Central Pivot (upper band)

  • PP — Central Pivot Line

  • BC — Bottom Central Pivot (lower band)

A narrow CPR often signals a trending day; a wide CPR suggests a range-bound day. CPR is its own indicator — you can use it with or without Standard Pivots.

Fibonacci Pivots

Same central PP, but R1–R3 and S1–S3 are spaced using Fibonacci ratios (0.382, 0.618, 1.000) applied to the previous day's range. Levels cluster tighter near the PP and spread wider further out.

Camarilla Pivots

Eight levels: H1 to H4 on the resistance side and L1 to L4 on support. H3/L3 are the primary intraday trade levels; H4/L4 are the breakout and breakdown levels.

Adding a pivot indicator to a chart

  1. Open any chart on Punch.

  2. Tap the Fx (Indicators) icon on the chart toolbar.

  3. Search for the pivot type you want — Standard Pivots, CPR, Fibonacci Pivots, or Camarilla Pivots.

  4. Tap to add. The levels appear on the chart with labels.

You can add more than one at the same time — for example, Standard Pivots + CPR + Camarilla on the same chart.

Q&A

Can I show multiple pivot methodologies at once?

Yes. Each pivot type is a separate indicator, so you can stack Standard, Fibonacci, and Camarilla on the same chart if you want. CPR is also independent — many traders pair it with Standard Pivots.

Do pivots work on options charts?

Yes. All four pivot indicators are available on every chart, including options. On options charts, levels are calculated from the option contract's own previous-day OHLC — not the underlying.

Where did Previous Day High and Previous Day Low go?

PDH and PDL are now part of the Key Levels indicator, not bundled into Standard Pivots. Add the Key Levels indicator alongside any pivot type to plot previous day's high, low, close, midpoint, and more.

How do I customise colours or line styles?

Open the indicator's settings (pencil icon next to its name in the Indicators panel) to adjust colour, line thickness, and visibility for each level.

Things to keep in mind

  • Each pivot type is its own indicator. There's no longer a single "Pivot Points" indicator with a dropdown — pick the type directly from the Indicators list.

  • Calculated from previous day's data. Pivots use the previous trading day's open, high, low, and close. Intraday bars are not used for the calculation.

  • Most useful on intraday timeframes. Since the math uses daily data, plotting pivots on daily or weekly charts can produce levels that don't match the visible candles.

  • Labels appear on the chart. Each line is labelled (PP, R1, S1, TC, BC, H4, L4 etc.) — no separate legend needed.

  • Daily OHLC required. For very illiquid or newly listed contracts without previous-day data, levels won't render.
