Support and Resistance

Support and resistance are price areas where the market has paused or turned before. This module explains why these areas form, how to mark them as zones, how breakouts and fake breakouts work, and how to use levels to plan risk rather than to forecast the future.

  2. 2Drawing zones, not lines, and the pull of round numbersHow to mark support and resistance as price zones instead of exact lines, using wicks and closes, and why round numbers attract orders.3 min
  3. 3Role reversal, breakouts and false breakoutsHow broken resistance can become support, what a real breakout looks like, and how false breakouts trap traders who act too early.3 min
  4. 4Using levels for stop placement and planningHow to use support and resistance to place stop-losses, set targets and plan risk, treating levels as planning tools rather than predictions.3 min
