What is Resistance?

Basics

저항선

A price zone where a rising price has repeatedly stopped and turned back. Holders who were trapped at that price want to exit at breakeven, so supply appears and buying pressure runs out. The previous high, the point where an earlier decline began, and zones with accumulated supply act as resistance. It is confirmed by whether a candle closes above it and holds.

Resistancea level where price rose three times and was pushed back down
