Support / Resistance levels are barriers that may force price trends to change direction. These levels can take many forms : straight lines (horizontal or inclined), curved lines, indicators (moving averages, Fibonacci retracements), patterns, etc.


The more times a support / resistance level is tested by the price, the weaker it becomes. You can identify the support / resistance levels by connecting Highs with Highs and Lows with Lows, as displayed in the image below. When the price is above a specific level, that level is considered a Support level.
When the price is below a specific level, that level is considered a Resistance level.
