The sessions

Oldest first: high, low, close for each session, sessions split by semicolons. The last one is the session just closed. The sample is gold.

The central pivot range

For the next session the central pivot range runs from 2,433.65 to 2,440.28, pivot 2,436.97. Its width, 0.272% of the pivot, is wide: among the widest third of the past sessions.

Against the one before
The range sits entirely above the one before (higher value): the last session traded its value higher. The previous one ran from 2,432.00 to 2,432.27.
The last close
The last close, 2,443.60, is above the range.
Does width matter here?
In these bars the session after the narrowest third of ranges moved 1.16% from high to low on average, against 1.12% after the widest third (26 sessions each). The gap is within what chance gives on this many sessions, so the width told little here.
Read it with care
The levels are arithmetic on one session's high, low and close, not places the market must turn. Use daily bars from one data source: brokers cut the day at different hours, so their levels differ.

The range for each session, built from the bar before it. Next is the coming session, built from the last bar.

Three levels from one session

The central pivot range takes the session just closed and draws three levels for the next one: the pivot, (high + low + close) / 3, the bottom central level, (high + low) / 2, and the top central level the same distance on the other side of the pivot. CPR traders read a narrow range as a sign of a bigger, trending session ahead and a wide one as a quieter day, and watch whether the new range sits above or below the last. The page checks the first idea on your own bars rather than taking it on trust.
