FOREX SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE TRADING:

Support and resistance trading is considered to be one of the most effective ways of Forex trading since it is based on the primary source of information -market price itself.
The basic understanding of support/resistance trading could be described as follows:
Once price reaches certain level at which some market reaction (price stop, price reversal etc) was seen in the past, it tends to produce certain reaction again. If traders are able to correctly anticipate this reaction, they will be able to benefit from market activity when price reaches support and resistance levels.

Support level means that upon reaching certain price the market is expected to find a new push from Buyers, who will try to drive price up.
Resistance level means that upon approaching it from below the price is expected to stop (temporarily or permanently) forced by Sellers' pressure to move back lower again.
How to spot support and resistance levels on the chart?
Let's first of all name several most commonly used methods and studies that help to identify support and resistance areas:
- price patterns
- trend lines
- moving averages
- pivot points
- fibonacci levels
Price patterns:
If you look at charts, you'll find that price moves in waves. The points where price stops and reverses, creating a wave is a natural support or resistance level. (Support - for all price activity which happens above the mentioned level, resistance - for all activity happening below that level).

Famous price patterns traders watch for are: double top/bottom, triple top/bottom, head and shoulders. You may google those terms to find out about specific price patterns and the ways to trade them.
Trend lines - are natural ways to determine the intensity of a trending market and find the slope it travels with either up or down.
Trend line represents support/resistance level as it extends in the future
