"Amateurs chase price. Professionals wait at the walls."
Welcome back to the War Room.
In Part 1, we learned the language of price (Trends). Now, we map the terrain.
The market does not move randomly. It respects invisible walls built by Whales. These walls are called Support (Demand) and Resistance (Supply).
If you can identify these zones, you stop guessing and start sniping. Let’s draw the lines. 👇
🧱 1. Support (The Floor / Demand Zone)
Think of Support as a concrete floor.
Definition: A price level where the asset has difficulty falling below.Psychology: At this level, Buyers are stronger than Sellers. Whales see the price as "Cheap" and step in to buy.Action: When price hits Support, it tends to BOUNCE.Strategy: Look for Long (Buy) entries here. Never Short into Support.
🚧 2. Resistance (The Ceiling / Supply Zone)
Think of Resistance as a glass ceiling.
Definition: A price level where the asset has difficulty rising above.Psychology: At this level, Sellers are stronger than Buyers. Traders who bought at the bottom are taking profit, and Bears are opening Short positions.Action: When price hits Resistance, it tends to REJECT (Fall).Strategy: Look for Short (Sell) entries here. Never FOMO Buy into Resistance.
🔄 3. The S/R Flip (The Golden Rule)
This is the most powerful concept in Technical Analysis.
"Old Resistance becomes New Support."
The Scenario:The price struggles to break a Resistance level (e.g., $100).Finally, a massive green candle BREAKS through $100.The price goes to $110, then comes back down to test $100.The Magic: The $100 level, which was once a Ceiling (Resistance), now acts as a Floor (Support).Why? Traders who missed the breakout are waiting at $100 to buy. Sellers who got trapped are closing their positions at break-even.Strategy: Don't buy the breakout candle. Buy the Retest.
⚔️ Strategist’s Decree: The safest entry is not the breakout; it is the Retest of the Flip Zone.
🖍️ 4. How to Draw S/R (Zones, Not Lines)
Beginners make a fatal mistake: They draw a single thin line at exactly $50,000.
The Market is not perfect. It is messy.
The Zone Rule: Never draw a line. Draw a Rectangular Box (Zone).Cover the Wicks: A zone should cover the candle bodies and the wicks (shadows) of previous rejections.Touch Points: The more times the price touches a level and rejects, the stronger that level is.2 Touches: Valid.3+ Touches: Strong Fortress.
⚠️ 5. Fake-outs (The Trap)
Whales know you are watching these lines.
Sometimes, price will pierce through a Support level, trigger your Stop-Loss, and then instantly rocket back up.
Defense: Wait for a Candle Close. Do not act while the candle is still moving. A wick below support is a trap; a body close below support is a breakdown.
🏁 Phase 4 (Part 2) Conclusion
You now have the map.
Support is for Buying.Resistance is for Selling/Taking Profit.The Retest is for Entering.Zones are better than Lines.

Dalla Struttura di Mercato a Decisioni Intelligenti (Analisi del Timeframe Giornaliero)
Nel timeframe giornaliero, il grafico ASTER/USDT mostra un mercato che sta passando da un chiaro trend ribassista (massimi più bassi, minimi più bassi) a un potenziale recupero a breve termine, ma la struttura a lungo termine domina ancora, ricordandoci che la visione d'insieme supera il rumore; il prezzo è recentemente rimbalzato da una forte zona di supporto intorno a $0.63–$0.65, confermato da lunghe ombre di candela inferiori che segnalano un rifiuto aggressivo degli acquirenti ai minimi, mentre il prezzo attuale vicino a $0.70 si sta avvicinando a un soffitto di resistenza minore intorno a $0.72–$0.75, dove i venditori erano intervenuti in precedenza ( #SupportResistance ). Il volume è aumentato durante il rimbalzo, il che aggiunge validità al movimento e riduce la possibilità di un fake-out, tuttavia il volume non è ancora abbastanza esplosivo per confermare un'inversione completa del trend (#volumeprofile ). Le medie mobili raccontano una storia importante: il prezzo sta recuperando le MAs a breve termine (20/50), suggerendo un miglioramento del momentum, ma rimane ben al di sotto della MA a lungo termine (200), mantenendo il bias macro cauto (#MovingAverages ). Da una prospettiva di confluenza, abbiamo (1) reazione di supporto, (2) volume in miglioramento e (3) cambiamento di momentum, ma senza un massimo più alto confermato sul giornaliero, questo rimane un gioco di probabilità, non certezza, allineandosi con la regola 70/30 secondo cui i mercati oscillano più di quanto tendenziano #CONFLUENCE ). Verdizione pratica: per il breve termine, un acquisto speculativo è ragionevole con obiettivi vicino a $0.75–$0.80 se il volume si mantiene e il momentum continua; per il lungo termine, questo è ancora un'area di attesa o di accumulo cauto, non un acquisto aggressivo, fino a quando ASTER non recupera e si mantiene sopra la MA 200 con una struttura di massimo più alto confermata—la gestione del rischio e uno stop chiaro sotto il supporto sono non negoziabili (#RiskManagement ).
