The Forex Scalpers The Key to Support and Resistance
Introduction to support and resistance
Support and resistance probably you will have read a lot about it in this document and we will go back to basics and explain how we use it as professional traders. To this day, we still use support and resistance every day.
Support and resistance are very important price levels that we have to take into account at all times. we as scalpers and swing traders use support and resistance on almost all time frames you can use it on 5m 15m h1 h4 the daily etc etc Below is an example of support and resistance on the daily time frame to recognize the daily range and to know where we are.
You also see that support and resistance levels are where the price returns with some regularity and then breaks down or reject this we see in the rejection candles the candles with beautiful long wicks / tails which means that the seller loses from the buyer if we hit the support. and the buyer loses if we hit resistance and so the seller takes control again. the higher the time frame the stronger the levels become.
Above you see the 4 hour time frame, you can see that we have a big pips range and it is a kind of outlined picture now. we see that the price range between support and resistance. you will also notice that the price is sticking in the middle and then drops slightly. the market I can not say it often enough works in waves pullbacks to continue the momentum / trend you will also be able to place it here to recognize it as a kind of traffic or price zone where you could put your take profit always look to the left the past regularly repeats itself. also make sure that if a candle goes up from a support you wait for the retest for the best price the momentum is already formed because the rejection candle is formed with the pinbar as previously explained buyers take the control close above support price back comes for a retest / lastkiss (you have read about this in naked forex book) and then presses momentum / trend. at all times make sure that you trade with the trend, here I mean buy in a buyers market (uptrend) and sell in a sellers market with a downtrend
Difference between S & R and Zones
As you can see support and resistance look like zones, but the difference is that not every support and resistance is a zone. For example there are other tops in this pictures where price turns, these can also been seen as a support and a resistance, but not as zones.
Okay back to the daily time frame usdcad I have mentioned a breakout here a couple of times here the price is finally broken by support of resistance and then support resistance of resistance word support and vice versa. support and resistance can be found on any time frame but as mentioned earlier, the higher the time frame the stronger a support and resistance.
