Support and Resistance

Two years ago on this blog I posted a topic on trading forex using support and resistance indicator, but didn't explain it at length.


Every day I trade forex , am always on the lookout for support and resistance levels. If you call yourself a forex trader, and you are unable to spot the levels, than I advice you stop trading forex, because it is the most basic concept of trading.
A Support level is where buying pressure overwhelms selling pressure enough to interrupt or reverse a downtrend. Conversely, a Resistance level is where pressure is strong enough to overcome buying pressure such that an uptrend can be stopped temporarily or reversed. A strong resistance level is more likely to block further advance even if prices slightly pierce through resistance, and such a situation presents traders with an excellent shorting opportunity.
