Treat price areas as study zones rather than precise promises about future movement.

Treat price areas as study zones rather than precise promises about future movement.

Zones, not magic lines

Learners often mark areas where price previously slowed or changed direction. These areas are approximate and can fail.

Look for repeated context

Review how often an area was approached, how price behaved around it and whether volume or public news changed.

Avoid turning a drawing into certainty

A line on a chart does not cause price to move. Use it to organise observations, not to create a guaranteed entry or exit.
