What is a pivot point? 

A pivot point is a price level used by traders as a possible indicator of future market movement, often as a point at which the value of a stock or asset could reverse course and head in the opposite direction. Pivot points are calculated based on an average of key price points achieved by the market during a particular trading period, whether it’s a day, a week, or a month.
