How To Trade Support Turned Resistance Forex Strategy

Be aware of apparent support levels on your chart, and if the price breaks them and heads down and starts going back up, one of the first questions you should be asking is this: where is the price most likely to reverse from?

Is there an excellent broken support level nearby where the price can reverse? If that is the reason, you need to look out to the price action as the price hits the good broken support level and watch to see if bearish reversal chart candlesticks form and use that as your sell entry signal.

Here’s how to trade:

1. place a pending sell stop order two pips below the low of the bearish chart reversal candlestick that forms with the previous support
2. put your stop loss 5-10 pips above the high of that bearish reversal chart candlestick
3. For take profit(TP), you can use the risk: reward(R: R) ratio of 1:3 to calculate it or if not, use previous chart swing lows as your take profit level.

Advantages of The Support Turned Resistance Forex Strategy

• excellent risk: reward ratio(R: R)

Disadvantages Of The Support Turned Resistance Forex Trading Strategy

• No line is drawn in concrete, and the price will go where it wants to go depending on market supply and demand, so expect support turned resistance levels to be violated.
