Hi

yes you can. In fact its a very sensible idea to check weekly and monthly charts for pivot points and other indicators like fibonacci etc. Because they are acting over a longer time frame they tend to be more powerful.

Cheers

I will never get the relevance of pivot points as a tool. They don't work so why do so many folks use them?

At times the lack of intellectual (trading) curiosity on display on this suite of forums staggers me; dyor, 'Google' pivots, watch the many you-tube vids on the subject..

BTW, just about any charting package you can buy, or get free, puts S&R (3 levels) + the daily pivot on your chart as an indicator option/choice..IMO you should not trade without these 3 key levels on your charts, particularly if you're day trading fx.
