Forex Support Resistance indicator (MT4/MT5) Indicator
Support Resistance is a multi-timeframe indicator that auto-detects and plots important price levels while analyzing its importance.
How to trade
A brief introduction
Resistance and support lines are price levels which temporarily halt or reverse the continuous movement of the trend. When the trend is bearish, support lines are created where sellers are temporarily (or sometimes permanently) exhausted and cannot press the quote any lower. Conversely, during a bullish trend, the price level where buyers are checked is called a resistance line.
How are support and resistance levels created?
When a dealer enters a buy order, the broker has the order filled by executing as many offers as possible until the amount the customer desires is reached. If the original order is a large market order, the broker will keep climbing on the price ladder until the order is fulfilled. Support and resistance points are created when the total orders in the market are not enough to clear the offers at a particular price level. When the orders are sell orders, and there are more than enough buyers at a particular price to exhaust the sellers, that price level is called a support; when there are more sellers than the buyers' orders can clear, the price level is a resistance.
Since many participants expect a price level to resist or support the quote, that price level will act in the anticipated manner regardless of what the other variables suggest. In a sense, technical analysts claim that traders behave like pack animals.
Why support and resistance levels work
Emotionally charged events are remembered better and have a stronger impact in human behavior. The market causes joy or trauma to its participants and this is why support and resistance lines work. But there are a few more reasons.
Resistance and support are relatively easy to identify on charts. From the most seasoned analyst to the forex freshman, traders don't have a lot of trouble identifying and drawing support and resistance lines.
Support and resistance lines often receive a lot of attention from news sources like Bloomberg or CNBC. The public is led to identify a particular price as a decisive or key level, and when it acts accordingly, the significance of these levels is easily established.
Support/resistance lines are not just imaginary lines drawn at the whim of the analyst. Multi-year, multi-month, multi-week support and resistance are often defended by large order clusters, originating enormous transaction volumes.
How to trade using price levels
The basic and most important usage of price levels it not to trade breakouts like most people think, but to recognize price ranges in which a trade can move favorably without being disrupted. Support and resistance levels are not fixed prices, but price ranges: this is why breakouts do not work very well by their own.
The best scenario to go long is the following:
A support has been tested and rejected, meaning the price has closed above it. Hopefully, creating a reversal or continuation pattern of some sort.
The distance to the next resistance is bigger than the distance to the rejected support. This simple fact increases the odds of the trade moving in your advantage without disruption and increases the expectancy of the trade.
The exact opposite applies for shorts.
