Pivot Points are a way of marking levels of importance on a chart of stocks. It's similar to how you make a wish on a special birthday or holiday candle. The stock market can be unpredictable, but the pivot points are a way to help you figure out where it's headed. Pivot points look like lines on a chart and show where the price of a stock may turn around (or "pivot"), either rising or falling. When the stock price crosses one of these levels, it's a sign that something important is happening, and you should pay attention.
