Support and Resistance levels
Güncellendi
Support and resistance levels, the bedrock of technical analysis, are fundamental elements. They serve as critical points that delineate potential price movements and are pivotal in decision-making processes for traders and investors alike
The basis:
There are several fundamental concepts in trading that remain the same over a long period of time. Among them, the concepts of support and resistance levels stand out. When used correctly, support and resistance levels improve trading efficiency in financial markets.
Today we will delve deeper into these concepts.
Price behavior:
It's important to note that support and resistance levels should not be viewed as precise lines. Prices may not necessarily adhere to these levels point by point; often, they may not even touch the level directly, sometimes piercing through it. This variability is normal, so these levels should be perceived more as zones of support and resistance. The width of these zones can vary, with the magnitude of dispersion dependent on the timeframe in which trading occurs. The higher the timeframe, the potentially broader the range of support and resistance levels.
Once again for strengthening:
Support and resistance levels represent specific price ranges on a chart (often represented by rectangles in my analysis) where the direction of price movement has historically changed. These ranges attract traders' attention because they provide clear points for setting stop losses and entering trades. In addition, these levels usually attract large buyers or sellers whose limit orders contribute to market dynamics.
Essentially, the level denotes the price area in the market where traders perceive the price to be either overpriced or underpriced, depending on the prevailing market conditions. Therefore, it is extremely important to closely monitor key levels where the role of support and resistance has changed or where significant price reversals have occurred.
Blending levels signify pivotal points on a price chart where price action can prompt a reversal in the opposite direction. In the presence of a robust trend, price movements may penetrate through these supply and demand levels, leading to potential shifts in direction. Such occurrences typically coincide with heightened transaction volumes. The interplay of price adjustments, heightened market activity, and trading volumes collectively influence market direction.
When resistance is breached and the price retraces to its previous level, there's a likelihood that bulls will once again push it upwards. Conversely, if the price retraces to the breached level after breaking through support, bears are likely to actively drive it downwards. Support and resistance levels can be identified as areas in the market where traders are more inclined to buy or sell, depending on current market conditions. This creates a zone of collision between buyers and sellers, often prompting the market to change its direction.
Retest:
A retest of a level refers to a brief return of the price to the breached support or resistance line for testing purposes. Following the retest, the price typically continues its movement in the direction of the breakout.
On higher time frames, support and resistance levels become more powerful:
It is important to observe the price action around levels:
Of course, support and resistance are dynamic concepts that require constant attention and analysis as their meaning changes depending on prevailing market conditions. Moreover, it is critical to consider multiple confirmations such as volume analysis and breakouts to confirm the strength of these levels.

Today we will delve deeper into these concepts.
Price behavior:
The fundamental principle of price behavior lies in the concept of supply and demand, governing the existence and operation of any market.
When demand outweighs supply, it prompts an upward push in prices, while in reverse circumstances, a decrease is observed. By identifying levels of supply and demand, traders significantly enhance their success rate.
A support level indicates a price range where strong buying positions are concentrated, typically defined by two minimum price points.
A resistance level, conversely, denotes a price range around which strong selling positions are clustered, often marked by two maximum price points.
It's important to note that support and resistance levels should not be viewed as precise lines. Prices may not necessarily adhere to these levels point by point; often, they may not even touch the level directly, sometimes piercing through it.

Retest:
A retest of a level refers to a brief return of the price to the breached support or resistance line for testing purposes. Following the retest, the price typically continues its movement in the direction of the breakout.
On higher time frames, support and resistance levels become more powerful:
It is important to observe the price action around levels:
- If the price swiftly reverses from a level into the opposite trend, it indicates significant importance of that level.
- If the price tests a specific area multiple times with minor retracements, it's likely that the level will eventually be breached.
- Swing zones refer to areas where the price retraces to the previous pullback in either a downtrend or uptrend. In less robust trends, the price tends to return to the boundary of the previous correction before continuing its movement.
Of course, support and resistance are dynamic concepts that require constant attention and analysis as their meaning changes depending on prevailing market conditions. Moreover, it is critical to consider multiple confirmations such as volume analysis and breakouts to confirm the strength of these levels.

Additionally, let's not overlook the liquidity aspect of the asset. In cases where an asset lacks liquidity, it becomes susceptible to manipulation. Conversely, high liquidity makes each support level more resistant to manipulation.İşlem aktif

Also, a support zone can have the appearance of a trend zone, albeit with some differences.I will talk about them in more detail later!

Also another great example of trend supportIn addition, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that after another test of support, we are going to take local liquidity from the high, while not going below 1 bounce.
This is also considered another trading method, I will tell you about it sometime! ;)

A prime example indeed.Let's focus solely on the zones themselves.
We observe a strong zone - the price approached it four times and then reversed.
On the fifth attempt there was a false breakout. We briefly consolidated and returned under the zone.
Twice more the strength of the zone proved to be sustained when the price broke through it again. We continued to trade within the zone for an extended period of time before price moved back below it.
What is the conclusion? Zones are a powerful tool, but context is key! A zone is not a panacea

Here's an example not from history, but in real timeYou can watch how the price will behave in the global resistance zone, a great place for a short-term trade.

I have a big new article coming out about trendlines - look forward to seeing you there! ;)

Of course, support may not always be prettyYou should always consider the context and other reasons for a bounce or breakdown

The more examples of support zone performance we see, the clearer the concept becomes, helping us identify suitable trading opportunities.A prime example is when we encountered a downtrend, which we subsequently broke and bounced off of nearby support. No need to come up with complicated scenarios

A properly identified support zone provides an accurate depiction of the market, empowering you to formulate your subsequent strategy based on this information.İşlem aktif
For nowIt’s very useful to analyze how support reacts in real time; for beginners, I advise you to add a picture and follow it
