The pivot point is used as both support and resistance point at the same time; it is the first level that we observe. For this week the pivot points (weekly and monthly) for AUD/USD are: 1.0341 weekly; 1.0026 monthly.
The Australian dollar is located above the pivot weekly and bellow the Moving Average of 200 periods (blue).
Therefore, the pivot points show the following:
1) If the price set by the pivot point is broken in an upward motion, the market is bullish and, conversely, if the pivot point is broken in a downward motion, the market is bearish.
2) They can provide points of market entry and exit that can be quite useful for trading strategy. For example, a limit sell order can be placed on a level support for open if this support is broken and can put the stop loss for this order in one of the resistances.
