Moving Averages as Support and Resistance

Widely used moving averages like the 10, 20, 50, and 200 generally provide the best support and resistance. Why? Because they are widely used.

This effectiveness is partly due to a self-fulfilling prophecy, which is why the more popular moving averages consistently provide the best support and resistance locations.

Support and resistance are easily visible on a chart. However, too many traders treat moving averages as exact prices for support or resistance. In reality, moving averages should be treated as areas where prices might overshoot or undershoot.
