<p>By 'support' and 'resistance' assume you mean in the context of trading an asset. If so, then, simplistically, support means a level at which the value of the asset could become attractive for incremental buyers. Resistance means the value which the asset may be having a hard time breaking out of (likely due to people selling at those levels)</p>
