elmucon:

no - no way

there is no reversal here - i.e. the resistance line does not become support after a breakdown ...


Show me an example where a resistance line becomes support after a breakdown (or vice versa).

For example this picture:

Resistance becomes support

At "1", "2" and "3" the distance to the straight line (which for "1", "2" and "3" is still support) is different. This leads us to the conclusion that it is not enough to find minima on some interval, we should also introduce a variable of scatter values (both in "+" and in "-").

 

The variation is in the "+" and in the "-":

Support line, range of values
