For an Intraday Trend and Target Calculator, you can analyze stock price movements to set targets and determine trend directions based on opening prices, pivot points, and support/resistance levels. Here’s an outline of commonly used formulas for calculating intraday trend and target levels:
Pivot Point Formula
The Pivot Point (P) is often the baseline used to determine potential support and resistance levels.
Pivot (P) = (High+Low+Close)/3
Support and Resistance Levels
Based on the Pivot Point, you can calculate the support and resistance levels that help determine targets for the stock.
First Resistance (R1) = (2*P -Low)
Support (S1) = (2*P -High)
Second Resistance (R2) = P + (high-Low)
Support (S2) = P - (high-Low)
Intraday Trend Identification
If the price is above the pivot point and moving towards or above R1, R2, it is typically considered a bullish trend.
If the price is below the pivot point and moving towards or below S1, S2, it is typically considered a bearish trend.
If the price hovers around the pivot point without any movement toward any resistance or support, the trend might be considered range-bound or neutral.
Target Levels
You can set target levels based on support and resistance.
