RESISTANCE OR SUPPLY ZONE
Resistance is the level at which supply is strong enough to stop the stock from moving higher, due to which that stock is unable to go up, or when it reaches the resistance level, investors start selling, due to which the stock falls. And that stock is unable to cross the resistance level, which is called resistance zone.
As soon as the stock reaches the resistance zone, the supply of that stock increases and selling starts in the stock, which is also called supply zone in the language of stock market. The resistance zone is always above the current market price (CMP) of the stock.
You can see in this below chart.
The support level is also called the Demand zone. The time frame may be changed to a 5-minute time frame for Intraday, a 15-minute and 1-hour time frame for swing trade & 1-Day time frame for short-term & long-term delivery.
In above chart, you can see market was a uptrend and shooting star candle formed at top level & Reversal for downtrend. Again market bounce back from the support zone and reached near resistance or supply zone and 2nd time also faced resistance. Unable to sustain at top level and same happed market fallen from the Resistance zone.
