Be a Forex Pro – Significant Support/Resistance Lines

Posted by Nick 14

Significant support/resistance lines, do you use them? If you don’t then you’re making a critical mistake!

Recently I have been frequenting the Forex4Noobs chat room and speaking to a lot of newbie traders. One thing I noticed is many new traders are not marking significant support/resistance lines on their charts. Significant support/resistance lines mark out points of extreme support and resistance. Knowing where these points are located is invaluable for:

1. Managing open trades.
2. Knowing when/if to enter a trade.
3. Trading reversals.
4. Knowing when you should stay out of the market.

In the video below I show you how to spot and place support/resistance lines.

Update

The video above was shot earlier today just after London session open. In the video the second line I placed on that chart was the 133.30 support/resistance level. If you take a look at a current GBP/JPY chart you will see an extremely long bullish trend stopped in its tracks by that same 133.30 line. This just shows you how important these lines are! You can see an image of this below:

    Thanks Nick. I sometimes stray and go back to my cow girl style.

    Yes, Nick that extremely long bullish trend started on early January this year and the minor psycho level of 133.30 was actually a bounce from the bullish trend line. Another issue was the time of the bounce between 17.45 and 18.30 hrs looking at the 15M chart where we can expect a reversal after 14.00 hrs
    At mentioned period we see indecision candles, we see preceding trend so we have enough indication that trend is going to change. Further economic news of BOE MPC pushed the price up to 134.671 Constant line level.
