Support and resistance indicator For MT4

In the stock market (as well as on Forex), there are situations when the trader opens a deal on the signals of the main indicators, but after a few points, it changes direction and brings a loss instead of the projected profit. To avoid such incidents, you should learn how to read the support and resistance indicator for MT4, which can help you track the price reverse and establish the price direction.

Level indicator trading idea

The market price is “driven” by ordinary people. Any analysis is based on primitive trade psychology. Support and resistance levels are formed in accordance with the law of supply (the willingness of the seller to sell an asset at a certain price) and demand (the ability of the buyer to buy it at a given price). The level of demand is considered a resistance zone (the seller is not ready to reduce the price), and the level of supply- a support zone (the buyer is not ready to pay this price). The levels are calculated from the price history based on the algorithm embedded in them.

The price is more likely to bounce off the resistance level. However, if it breaks through it, the price will keep moving due to the Stop Loss of the sellers and the growing interest of the buyers. A similar process takes place in the support zone.

Support and resistance zones

Many people know that the level is not the exact value of the price; it is expressed in the zones. Professional traders determine these zones manually, but there are also qualitative indicators in this area. The blue color denotes the zone for entering into long positions, and the orange— into the short ones. We should note that the indicator clearly identifies strong zones and allows you to quickly find the profitable entry points for trading.
