How To Use This Screener
CPR Width % measures compression. Lower values indicate tighter pivots that often precede expansion. Price Zone maps where spot is trading against pivot ladders (PP, R1, S1). Setup Score combines pivot structure, breakout context, and volume confirmation.
Narrow CPR and Wide CPR buckets are dynamic for the current universe.
Earlier sessions
Replay one session with the selected pivot type and segment. Every pivot ladder is rebuilt from the last completed day, week or month before that session.
Success means the pivot target (R1/S1 for CPR breaks, R2/S2 for R1/S1 breaks) was reached before the stop at PP or a close back through the broken level. Only the first qualifying break of each level per session is replayed. Entry is a later break of the setup candle's extreme; gaps fill at the open.
If a candle could hit both stop and target, the stop is assumed first. Each event is independent; fees and slippage are excluded. All times are IST candle starts. Replay runs only when requested.

Screen Thesis
Prebuilt Pivot Setups Explained
Compression setups likely to expand after range contraction.
When to use: Best for building a pre-breakout watchlist in NSE stocks before intraday expansion starts.
Trigger: Price closes above CPR top or below CPR bottom and does not immediately slip back inside.
Confirmation: Volume ratio above average and clean candle structure near pivot points.
Risk: False break risk is high if price keeps rotating inside CPR after breakout.
High-width CPR, suitable for mean-reversion and fade monitoring.
When to use: Useful on expected range-bound sessions and mean-reversion setups around support resistance.
Trigger: Price stretches toward outer pivot levels (R1/S1) and stalls with slowing momentum.
Confirmation: Weak follow-through on breakout attempts and repeated rejection at the same zone.
Risk: If volume expands sharply, a wide CPR name can still trend and invalidate fade entries.
Price is rotating inside value zone, waiting for directional resolution.
When to use: Use when you want low-volatility stocks likely to decide direction later in the session.
Trigger: Wait for decisive break above CPR top or below CPR bottom before taking directional risk.
Confirmation: A second candle holding outside CPR gives better reliability than first poke.
Risk: Choppy price action inside CPR can create whipsaws and overtrading.
Price moved above CPR from below/inside, potential upside expansion.
When to use: For breakout trading when a stock shifts from value area to bullish expansion.
Trigger: Move above CPR top with continuation toward R1.
Confirmation: Above PP structure plus improving breadth/sector strength and volume pickup.
Risk: Immediate pullback below CPR top usually signals weak breakout quality.
Price moved below CPR from above/inside, potential downside expansion.
When to use: For bearish momentum scans where price leaves value area on the downside.
Trigger: Break below CPR bottom and continuation toward S1.
Confirmation: Below PP structure and sustained selling pressure with elevated participation.
Risk: Fast reclaim back inside CPR often turns this into a failed breakdown.
Compression with upside breakout, often high-momentum continuation.
When to use: High-priority momentum setup for intraday breakout and short swing continuation.
Trigger: Narrow CPR stock breaks up and starts holding above R1 zone.
Confirmation: Expansion candles with volume ratio above baseline and no deep retracement.
Risk: Avoid chasing if move is already extended far from PP without pullback plan.
Compression with downside break, useful for short-side momentum.
When to use: Short-side counterpart of compression breakout, useful on weak market sessions.
Trigger: Narrow CPR stock breaks down and sustains below S1.
Confirmation: Follow-through candles and broad risk-off sentiment in related sector/index.
Risk: Sharp short-covering rallies can reverse this setup quickly near support clusters.
Bullish strength above first resistance.
When to use: For strength scans and continuation candidates already trading above first resistance.
Trigger: Hold above R1 after breakout, then resume higher from shallow pullback.
Confirmation: Price remains above PP and does not close back below R1 repeatedly.
Risk: Late entries near exhaustion candles can face sudden mean reversion.
Price holding above pivot point with bullish structure.
When to use: Good for bullish-bias filtering before applying tighter entry setups.
Trigger: Stock stays above pivot point and builds higher intraday lows.
Confirmation: Positive percent change with stable or rising volume profile.
Risk: Above PP alone is not a complete signal; combine with CPR and R1 context.
Price trading below pivot point with bearish structure.
When to use: Useful for bearish-bias filtering and defensive positioning.
Trigger: Price fails near PP and rotates lower without reclaiming pivot.
Confirmation: Weak closes and repeated rejection from PP or CPR upper zone.
Risk: A strong reclaim above PP can flip sentiment quickly.
Bearish pressure below first support.
When to use: For weak-stock scans and short continuation opportunities.
Trigger: Price breaks and holds below S1, then extends toward deeper supports.
Confirmation: Down candles with broad market weakness and stable downside volume.
Risk: Oversold snaps can be violent, especially after a large opening gap down.
Price trading between R1 and R2 in bullish impulse zone.
When to use: For stocks already in bullish impulse after clearing resistance.
Trigger: Price enters R1-R2 band and keeps printing higher highs/higher lows.
Confirmation: Pullbacks hold near R1 or midpoint and bounce quickly.
Risk: If price loses R1 decisively, momentum phase may be over.
Price trading between S1 and S2 in bearish impulse zone.
When to use: For bearish impulse names after support breakdown.
Trigger: Price trades between S1 and S2 with lower-high structure.
Confirmation: Bounce attempts fail near S1 and sellers re-enter quickly.
Risk: A reclaim above S1 can force short exit and setup reset.
Approaching previous day high, breakout or rejection watchlist.
When to use: For breakout-or-rejection watchlists around a widely tracked reference level.
Trigger: Stock approaches previous day high with tightening range.
Confirmation: Either decisive breakout with volume or clear rejection wick pattern.
Risk: First touch trades can be noisy without confirmation candle.
Approaching previous day low, support test or breakdown watchlist.
When to use: For support-test and potential breakdown scans near prior day low.
Trigger: Price revisits previous day low during weak structure.
Confirmation: Breakdown close below level or strong bounce with demand response.
Risk: Level hunting near lows can create fake breakdown candles.
Price has crossed previous week high.
When to use: For swing candidates where higher timeframe resistance has just given way.
Trigger: Price moves above previous week high and sustains.
Confirmation: Follow-through day and no immediate close back under breakout line.
Risk: Weekly high breaks can fail in low-volume environments.
Price has broken below previous week low.
When to use: For bearish swing continuation and portfolio hedge screens.
Trigger: Price breaks below previous week low and fails on retest.
Confirmation: Persistent weakness below PP and continued relative underperformance.
Risk: If week low is reclaimed quickly, bearish setup weakens materially.
Price has crossed previous month high, structural strength signal.
When to use: For structural trend-following watchlists with multi-day holding potential.
Trigger: Break above previous month high with clean range expansion.
Confirmation: Strong close and sustained positioning above breakout level in next sessions.
Risk: Monthly breakouts can still trap if index trend turns sharply.
Price has broken previous month low, structural weakness signal.
When to use: For structural weakness scans and downside continuation baskets.
Trigger: Price breaks below previous month low and stays offered.
Confirmation: Weak rebound attempts and persistent selling pressure.
Risk: Deeply extended downside can lead to aggressive short-covering rallies.
Tested S1 and recovered with positive close pressure.
When to use: For bounce setups when price probes support and demand shows up.
Trigger: Sweep below/near S1 followed by recovery close above support zone.
Confirmation: Reversal candle plus improving breadth or sector participation.
Risk: Counter-trend reversals fail quickly if next candle cannot hold bounce.
Tested R1 and faded with negative close pressure.
When to use: For fade setups when resistance tests fail repeatedly.
Trigger: Push into R1 or nearby resistance then bearish rejection close.
Confirmation: Lower high after rejection and inability to reclaim failed level.
Risk: A breakout candle through resistance invalidates the rejection idea.
Current volume significantly above pivot reference volume.
When to use: As a quality layer on top of breakout stocks and momentum screens.
Trigger: Volume ratio moves clearly above baseline while price is trending.
Confirmation: Price holds directional levels (PP/R1/S1) with continued participation.
Risk: High volume on indecisive candles can also mark distribution, not breakout.
Low participation move, useful to avoid weak breakouts.
When to use: As a risk-control filter to avoid weak breakouts lacking commitment.
Trigger: Price drifts without strong volume support near key pivot levels.
Confirmation: Frequent reversals and inability to hold breakout levels.
Risk: Low-volume drifts can still trend on news; avoid absolute assumptions.
FAQs: Pivot Points and CPR Screener
What is CPR in this pivot screener?
CPR stands for Central Pivot Range. It is calculated around the pivot point and helps identify compression or expansion zones. Narrow CPR often signals potential breakout conditions, while wide CPR can indicate broader consolidation.
How should I use Narrow CPR and Wide CPR in stock screening?
Use Narrow CPR to prepare breakout watchlists and Wide CPR for mean-reversion or range-based ideas. A practical workflow is to combine Narrow CPR with Above R1, Week High Breakout, and High Volume Confirmed for stronger momentum candidates.
Does this page use daily, weekly, and monthly pivot points?
Yes. You can switch between daily, weekly, and monthly pivots from the sidebar. This lets you align intraday setups with higher-timeframe support and resistance structure.
Why is volume confirmation important in pivot breakouts?
Volume helps validate whether a move is supported by broad participation. Breakouts above resistance with weak volume are more likely to fail than moves with strong volume expansion.
Can I use this screener for NSE stocks and F&O stocks?
Yes. The segment filter supports All, F&O, and Cash. That makes it easier to build focused lists for derivatives trading, swing trading, or broader NSE stock scanning.
What is the best way to start if I am new to pivot trading?
Start with three screens: Narrow CPR, CPR Breakout Up, and Above R1. Then check setup score, price zone, and volume ratio. This keeps your process simple while still using institutional-style structure.
How does the earlier-sessions backtest replay work?
Pick a past session and run the replay. For every stock, the pivot ladder is rebuilt from the last completed day, week, or month before that session, and the first qualifying close beyond the CPR top, CPR bottom, R1, or S1 becomes a setup. Each setup is simulated with a stop-entry above the setup candle, a stop at the pivot point, and a target at the next pivot level, then marked success, failed, or not triggered. The success rate is the share of resolved events that reached their target; fees and slippage are excluded.
Pivot-based screener for support and resistance levels
The Pivots Screener compares stock prices with calculated pivot, support and resistance levels. Available pivot families provide different reference ladders derived from the selected prior-period price data.
Choose the pivot method and timeframe, then inspect the distance from price to the relevant level and the chart's reaction there. Agreement between methods may be worth monitoring, but the calculations share inputs and do not provide independent confirmation. A pivot crossing alone does not establish trend continuation or reversal.
