I thought you said they were slightly different. That's why I posted some other methods.

In any event....determining pivots can be done in a few moments using a pen and paper. Pit traders use some form of the pivot method...they are not allowed to use computers.

...and whereas Kevin got 973.07, I think it was, for a pivot and I got 973.10....well it makes no difference. The spoos move in 0.05 point increments and so 973.07 will not be hit. It will either be 973.10 or 973.05.

If 973.10 holds...it holds. If 973.05 is hit, the pivot did not hold. In either case 973.07 is the same thing.
