D08-F01-A05 · LEVEL 2 GUIDED LAB · SYNTHETIC DATA

Classic and Floor-Trader Pivot Points

Which next-session reference levels follow from the prior session's high, low, and close? Walk the evidence clock one stage at a time. This lab teaches the publication contract; it does not simulate returns, platform parity, or trade performance.

Selected expression

P=(H+L+C)/3; R1=2P-L; S1=2P-H; R2=P+(H-L); S2=P-(H-L)

Availability rule

A level derived from a prior session becomes available only after that source session is final; a confirmed pivot becomes available only after its declared confirmation lag.

Verified synthetic fixture

This lab is paired with datasets/implementation-fixtures.json: 96 deterministic, oldest-to-newest observations spanning oscillating, rising, and moderating regimes. It is teaching data—not market history or predictive evidence.
