Potential Breakout Indicator

Pivot Support Resistance Indicator Meta Trader 4 is a set of indicators used to determine potential turning points or potential indices breakout points, also known as 'pivots' or pivot point. These Pivot Support Resistance Levels are calculated to determine points which the trend could change from a 'bullish' to "bearish market trend or from a 'bearish' to "bullish trend." Indices traders use these Pivot Support Resistance Zones as zones of support & resistance.

These Pivot Support Resistance Levels are calculated as the average of the high, low and close from the previous session:

Indices Pivot Point = (High + Low + Close) / 3
