Support and Resistancesimple strategy

 

• is a widely used trading system based on the horizontal levels of support and resistance. These levels are formed by the candlesticks' highs and lows. A break-through of these levels after a period of consolidation gives a signal for a trend. This strategy doesn't require any chart indicators except for the ability to draw lines (at least imaginary)

Features• Well-defined low stop-loss.

• Relatively high success rate.

• Unclear target levels.

How to Trade?

• Support level

• Support level is formed by the lows of two or more candlestick bars that form a rather straight horizontal line with no lower lows between them.

How to Trade?

• Resistance level

• Resistance level is formed by the highs of two or more candlestick bars that form a rather straight horizontal line with no higher highs between them.

Consolidation• Consolidation is a period without

any trend, forming near support or resistance level, with the relatively small candlestick bodies.

Close Manner• A close below the support level

signals a short position.

• A close above the resistance level signals a long position.

Stop-loss & Take-profit

• Stop-loss is set to the low of the previous candlestick (for the long positions) or to the high of the previous candlestick (for the short positions).

• Take-profit can be set relatively to the stop-loss or as a trailing stop of some sort
