Understanding Support and Resistance
Support is a price level where buying pressure tends to overcome selling pressure, preventing the price from falling further. It represents an area where traders see value and are willing to buy, creating a floor for price action. On the other hand, resistance is a price level where selling pressure exceeds buying pressure, capping further price increases. Resistance acts as a ceiling, as sellers step in to prevent further gains.
Support and resistance are not precise lines but zones where market activity often shifts. Prices may test these levels multiple times, strengthening their significance. When a price breaches a resistance level, it often becomes a new support level, and vice versa. This phenomenon, known as a support-resistance flip, reflects changes in market sentiment.
