Picking out resistance points is a key part of trading, and ensuring you select the right ones is essential. First you need to determine whether the market is in a bearish or bullish trend, so you're looking for a 3 point move. A bull move will generally start with an upward trajectory, followed by a correction and then a move up to a new high, whereas a bear trend should start with a drop, followed by an attempted recovery, and followed by a drop below the previous resistance. These will then indicate your buy zones to either long or short the currency. An added confirmation will be the price action above the 200 day Moving Average for the bull trend, and below for the bear trend. Just a simple analysis to help plan future trades.
