First, let’s define what’s Support and Resistance so we’re all on the same page.
Support – A horizontal area on your chart where you can expect buyers to push the price higher.
Resistance – A horizontal area on your chart where you can expect sellers to push the price lower.
Also: Support and Resistance can swop roles. This means when Support breaks it can become Resistance. And when Resistance breaks it can become Support
But why does it happen?
✍ Because when the price breaks Support, traders who are long are losing money and in the “red’. So, when the price rallies back to Support, this group of traders can now get out of their losing trade at breakeven — and that induce selling pressure.
And that’s not all because traders who missed the breakout will want to short the markets which increase the selling pressure.
And that’s why when Support breaks it tends to become Resistance..
Make sense?
Now you’re probably wondering…
“But how do I draw Support and
Resistance on my charts?”
