Enter yesterday's High, Low and Close. Get today's Pivot, TC, BC and eight support/resistance levels in one click — built plain and simple for students.
Use the previous trading day's data (NIFTY, BANKNIFTY, or any stock).
CPR, short for Central Pivot Range, is one of the simplest and most respected tools for reading an intraday chart before the market even opens.
It is made of three lines — Pivot, TC (Top Central), and BC (Bottom Central) — all calculated purely from the previous day's High, Low and Close. No settings to tweak, no repainting, no guesswork. Because it is built entirely on yesterday's data, every trader looking at the same chart sees the exact same three levels, which is exactly why so many students prefer it over indicators with adjustable parameters.
Think of CPR as the market's "fair value" zone for the day. Price spending time inside this zone usually means indecision. Price rejecting it and moving away usually means direction has been chosen — and that is the moment intraday traders look for.
The calculator above does this math for you instantly, but understanding the formula is what actually builds your trading intuition — it's worth learning by hand at least once.
H = previous day's High · L = previous day's Low · C = previous day's Close
This is the single most useful reading skill CPR teaches beginners: judging the day's character before it even starts.
| CPR Width | What It Usually Means | Student Approach |
|---|---|---|
| Narrow (TC and BC close together) | Higher chance of a strong trending day in one direction | Favor breakout / trend-following setups |
| Wide (TC and BC far apart) | Higher chance of a range-bound, choppy day | Favor range trades near R1/S1, avoid chasing breakouts |
If price opens above the CPR band and stays above TC on the first 15-minute candle, it signals buying strength — students often watch for a pullback toward TC as a potential entry, with R1 and R2 as the first targets.
If price opens below the CPR band and stays under BC, it signals selling pressure — a pullback toward BC that gets rejected is often treated as a short entry, with S1 and S2 as the first targets.
On wide-CPR days, price often oscillates between R1 and S1. Some students practice buying near S1 and selling near R1, always with a tight stop just outside the range.
When price pokes above TC or below BC and quickly slips back inside the range, it's often treated as a false breakout — a signal to expect a move toward the opposite side of the range.
CPR stands for Central Pivot Range. It's a three-line indicator — Pivot, TC and BC — calculated from the previous day's High, Low and Close, showing where the "fair value" of a stock or index sits before the market opens.
Pivot = (High + Low + Close) / 3. BC = (High + Low) / 2. TC = (Pivot − BC) + Pivot. Together, TC and BC form the boundaries of the Central Pivot Range.
A narrow CPR (small gap between TC and BC) usually signals higher volatility and a stronger chance of a trending day. A wide CPR usually signals a sideways, range-bound day.
Yes. CPR needs no complex settings, works on any charting platform, and gives clear, rule-based levels — making it one of the easier indicators for students learning to read intraday bias and risk levels.
Yes, CPR is widely used for index option trading. Many traders combine the CPR levels of the index with option-chain data to decide whether to look at call or put positions for the day.
