RelicusRoad - Support and ResistanceWe bring you dynamically created fundamental support and resistance analysis required for any instrument a trader trades.
Support & Resistance Concept
The concepts of trading level support and resistance are undoubtedly two of the most highly discussed attributes of technical analysis . As part of analyzing chart patterns, these terms are used by traders to refer to price levels on charts that tend to act as barriers, preventing the price of an asset from getting pushed in a certain direction.
At first, the explanation and idea behind identifying these levels seem easy, but as you'll find out, support and resistance can come in various forms, and the concept is more difficult to master than it first appears, this is where RelicusRoad - Support and Resistance comes in and draws them for you.
Technical analysts use support and resistance levels to identify price points on a chart where the probabilities favor a pause or reversal of a prevailing trend.
Support occurs where a downtrend is expected to pause due to a concentration of demand.
Resistance occurs where an uptrend is expected to pause temporarily, due to a concentration of supply.
Market psychology plays a major role as traders and investors remember the past and react to changing conditions to anticipate future market movement.
Support and resistance areas can be identified on charts using trendlines and moving averages.

FUNCTIONS OVERVIEW
MACD: Moving average convergence divergence ( MACD ) is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of a security’s price. The MACD is calculated by subtracting the 26-period exponential moving average ( EMA ) from the 12-period EMA .
The result of that calculation is the MACD line. A 9 EMA of the MACD called the "signal line," is then plotted on top of the MACD line, which can function as a trigger for buy and sell signals. Traders may buy the security when the MACD crosses above its signal line and sell—or short—the security when the MACD crosses below the signal line. Moving average convergence divergence ( MACD ) indicators can be interpreted in several ways, but the more common methods are crossovers, divergences, and rapid rises/falls.
Moving average convergence divergence ( MACD ) is calculated by subtracting the 26-period exponential moving average ( EMA ) from the 12-period EMA .
MACD triggers technical signals when it crosses above (to buy) or below (to sell) its signal line.
The speed of crossovers is also taken as a signal of a market is overbought or oversold.
MACD helps investors understand whether the bullish or bearish movement in the price is strengthening or weakening.
PMACD: It's an improvement to MACD that you can use the Red/Green indications to make better decisions.
Parabolic SAR: The parabolic SAR indicator, developed by J. Wells Wilder, is used by traders to determine trend direction and potential reversals in price. The indicator uses a trailing stop and reverse method called "SAR," or stop and reverse, to identify suitable exit and entry points. Traders also refer to the indicator as the parabolic stop and reverse , parabolic SAR , or PSAR.
The parabolic SAR indicator appears on a chart as a series of dots, either above or below an asset's price, depending on the direction the price is moving. A dot is placed below the price when it is trending upward, and above the price when it is trending downward.
The parabolic SAR (stop and reverse) indicator is used by technical traders to spot trends and reversals.
The indicator utilizes a system of dots superimposed onto a price chart.
A reversal occurs when these dots flip, but a reversal signal in the SAR does not necessarily mean a reversal in the price. A PSAR reversal only means that the price and indicator have crossed.
Momentum: On paper, momentum investing seems less like an investing strategy and more like a knee-jerk reaction to market information. The idea of selling losers and buying winners is seductive, but it flies in the face of the tried and true Wall Street adage, "buy low, sell high."
Momentum investing is a trading strategy in which investors buy securities that are rising and sell them when they look to have peaked.
The goal is to work with volatility by finding buying opportunities in short-term uptrends and then sell when the securities start to lose momentum.
Then, the investor takes the cash and looks for the next short-term uptrend, or buying opportunity, and repeats the process.
Skilled traders understand when to enter into a position, how long to hold it for, and when to exit; they can also react to short-term, news-driven spikes or selloffs.
Risks of momentum trading include moving into a position too early, closing out too late, and getting distracted and missing key trends and technical deviations.
