Duker, please at least try to understand resistance. It works often.
If a stock price has [preferably repeatedly] gone down to a certain
level and then turned up, that means sellers were done selling.
If some of the the same investors still hold the stock, they more
often than not will hold if the stock goes down to resistance again.
If it goes below resistance, the holders may now become sellers
and it's a new ball game. It is all based on psychology.

A good example is ESV: it tested resistance at 9 repeatedly,
meaning nobody wanted to sell at such a low price.

Many investors use these indicators and it is best
to know of them. You don't have to believe.<g>
